CHAIRMAN'S LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL
To His Honour
The Honourable Albert Matthews, LL.D.,
Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario
May It Please Your Honour:
The undersigned respectfully presents the Thirty-Second Annual Report
of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario for the fiscal year which
ended^October 31, 1939.
The record of the Commission's work presented in this Annual Report
relates to three principal fields — the co-operative municipal field, the field of
rural supply, and the northern Ontario field. The first two cover the Com-
mission's activities on behalf of the co-operative systems, and the last relates
to its trusteeship of the Northern Ontario Properties on behalf of the Province.
Throughout the various sections of the Report dealing broadly with physical
operation of the plants, constructional activities and financial statements,
these fields of activity are clearly differentiated.
The Report also presents for the calendar year 1939 financial statements
and statistical data relating to the municipal electric utilities operating in
conjunction with the several co-operative systems for the supply of electrical
service throughout the Province.
Notwithstanding the tense European situation, which over-shadowed
activity everywhere, the fiscal year of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
of Ontario, which ended October 31, 1939, was a year of encouraging progress.
Towards the latter part of the year, before war was declared, it became in-
creasingly evident that the recession of 1938 had passed and peaceful industry
was making progress towards better times.
Operating Conditions
Throughout the year, operating conditions were most favorable. No
serious interruptions to service on any part of the Commission's undertaking
occurred and all primary and secondary demands for power were satisfactorily
met. The operation of all generating stations was especially free from ice
trouble during the winter and spring break-up and practically no loss in
generating capacity resulted from this cause.
In the Georgian Bay system, river flow and water storage were generally
above normal until September when low precipitation impaired storage.
vi THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
During the greater portion of the year it was necessary to supplement the
system's internal power resources by transfer from the Niagara system
through the Hanover frequency-changer.
The output available from the generating stations of the Eastern Ontario
system enabled all primary demands to be met. In addition the system
furnished certain quantities of secondary power. The demands for secondary
power were filled in part by transfer from the Niagara system.
In the Thunder Bay system and Northern Ontario Properties, water
storage and stream flow conditions were in general satisfactory. Towards the
end of the year it was considered advisable to limit the outflow from lake
Nipigon to the generating stations of the Thunder Bay system in order to
conserve water storage in this basin.
The districts served by the Northern Ontario Properties are scattered
over wide areas of northern Ontario and long transmission lines have been
built to connect these districts with the various sources of hydro-electric
power. Owing to the great distances involved, it is not economically prac-
ticable at the present time to weld the whole of the transmission networks of
the Northern Ontario Properties into one physical entity. As time goes on,
however, and more mining areas are developed at intermediate points, it is
certain that interconnection of the districts will be accomplished to a greater
degree. During the past year, for example, the Patricia and St. Joseph
districts, which obtain their power supplies from the Ear Falls and Rat
Rapids developments, were combined and connected by a transmission line
extending from Uchi to Crow river, a distance of 113 miles. This connecting
link enables the two developments at Ear Falls and Rat Rapids to be oper-
ated in parallel and thus to reinforce each other, providing a more reliable
service.
Similarly in the Nipissing and Sudbury districts, interconnection has
been arranged between the power plants on the South river serving the
Nipissing district and those on the Wanapitei river serving the Sudbury
district with 60-cycle power.
Load Conditions
Evidence of the increasing industrial activity throughout the Province
was reflected in increasing power loads. In fact, for some months prior to
the declaration of war, Hydro experienced substantial increase in loads, and
not Hydro alone, but other electric supply organizations across Canada.
Since the War started these increases in load not only continued, but were
augmented as plants manufacturing war materials gradually increased their
production.
It will be remembered that, due to the business recession of 1938, the
primary power demand of the large Niagara system was virtually the same in
October 1938 as in October 1937. But in October 1939, the corresponding
power demand of the Niagara system reached 1,228,000 horsepower, an in-
crease of 142,000 horsepower or 13 per cent, as compared with October 1938.
The other co-operative systems of the Commission, as well as the
Northern Ontario Properties, recorded substantial increases in load.
1 940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION vii
The aggregate primary loads of the co-operative systems and the North-
ern Ontario Properties increased from 1,484,615 horsepower in October 1938
to 1,669,337 horsepower in October of the current year, a gain of 12.4 per
cent. The primary load trend, which had shown a negligible rise in the pre-
vious year, started to point upwards at the close of 1938 and since has steadily
gained ground. In the co-operative systems, commercial, domestic and rural
demands have largely contributed to the upward trend, further aided in the
last two months of the Commission's fiscal year by increases in industrial
demands.
The total load in October 1939 for all co-operative systems and the
Northern Ontario Properties, including both primary and secondary loads,
was 1,963,471 horsepower, the highest ever carried by the systems of the Com-
mission and 7.2 per cent above the October peak of 1938. The total consump-
tion of energy for all systems, including both primary and secondary power,
amounted to 8,502,000,000 kilowatt-hours, being 12.1 per cent in excess of
that consumed in the previous year. This means that the greater portion of
the Commission's power reserves, especially in the large Niagara system,
found a ready sale in the secondary power market during the year.
Increased Mining Loads
During the past year progress in the Northern Ontario mining fields has
continued the phenomenal growth experienced for several years. This
growth has resulted in a great increase in the demand for Hydro power.
From October 1938 to October 1939, the total primary load in the districts
served by the Northern Ontario Properties rose from 145,000 horsepower to
168,000 horsepower, an increase of 16 per cent; this followed increases of 19.6
per cent in 1938 and 19.7 per cent in 1937. The total increase in primary
load of the Northern Ontario Properties during the past four years has ex-
ceeded 100,000 horsepower or more than 150 per cent. These figures include
municipal loads in northern Ontario but do not include the loads sold in the
Beardmore and Longlac mining areas, which are supplied by the Thunder
Bay system. The actual increase in the total load sold to mining companies
during the fiscal year was 23,801 horsepower, from 127,986 horsepower to
151,787 horsepower or 18.6 per cent.
The increased load sold to mining properties in 1939 over 1938 for the
Abitibi district, including the mining camps at Porcupine, Kirkland Lake,
and Larder Lake, Matachewan, Ramora and Sudbury was 20,108 horsepower.
The increased load sold in 1939 in the Patricia-St. Joseph district, which in-
cludes the Red Lake, Woman Lake and Pickle Lake mining areas, was 3,612
horsepower. The increase in the 60-cycle load sold to mining properties in
the Sudbury district was 81 horsepower.
Taking into consideration the mining properties which had been aban-
doned or closed down, the total number of active contracts at October 31,
1939 was 54, a net increase of six during the year.
The accompanying tabulation gives, for the months of October and
December, 1938 and 1939, the primary peak loads of the co-operative systems
and of the several districts of the Northern Ontario Properties. It also gives
similar data for the total primary and secondary loads.

Additions to Generating, Transmission and Distribution Equipment
No extensions to generating equipment were made in connection with
the co-operative systems in 1939, but at DeCew Falls additional pondage was
provided and elsewhere studies were made relating to possible future develop-
ment. These studies dealt with power sites on the Musquash river in the
Georgian Bay system, on the Madawaska river in the Eastern Ontario system,
and on the Nipigon river in the Thunder Bay system.
In the Toronto suburban area a new transformer station with an initial
capacity of 50,000 kv-a in two units was authorized. It is known as the
Toronto-Fairbank transformer station and will supply power to the northern
suburban districts of Toronto and to various municipalities between Toronto
and lake Simcoe. A transformer station is being constructed near Simcoe
to improve the power supply to municipalities south of Brant transformer
station, and another at the Ontario Paper Co. plant in Thorold. Addi-
tional capacity was installed where required in other transformer stations.

Twenty-three new distributing stations were installed or under construc-
rion during the year, and the transformer capacity of twenty-five other dis-
tributing stations was increased. About 31 miles of new transmission lines
were placed in service and many revisions and improvements to existing
lines were made.
To provide for the growth in load in the mining areas served by the
Northern Ontario Properties, it has been necessary for the Commission con-
stantly to increase generating plant capacity, to construct additional trans-
mission lines, to enlarge existing and construct new transformer stations and,
in general, to rearrange in many instances the entire set-up under which power
delivery has been made. In fact, the increase in the power demand from both
existing and new mining properties has been so rapid that it has been difficult
to provide plant and equipment fast enough to prevent embarrassment to
mining operations, from the standpoint of power supply.
New works constructed in 1939, or under construction at the end of the
year to provide for increased loads included the following:
x THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
In the Abitibi district, a new 15,000 kv-a transformer station at Timmins
replacing a 9,000 kv-a station; a loop transmission line out of the Timmins
transformer station; a new bank of three 9,000 kv-a transformers at Kirkland
Lake, increasing its capacity to 57,000 kv-a, and a new 1,000 kv-a transformer
station at Westree to supply power to the Tyranite and Ronda mines.
In the Patricia-St. Joseph district, which serves the mining areas of Red
Lake, Woman Lake and Pickle Lake, a third generating unit of 7,500 horse-
power was installed at the Ear Falls development and will be placed in opera-
tion early in 1940, bringing the total installed capacity at Ear Falls to 17,500
horsepower. A new 44,000-volt transmission line 48 miles in length was
placed in operation between Ear Falls and Uchi mine in the Woman Lake
district. The new transmission line between the Uchi mine and Crow river,
near the Central Patricia mine, which forms the connecting link between the
Ear Falls and Rat Rapids developments, was completed, and a 3,750 kv-a
transformer station at its terminus was placed in operation in September 1939.
In addition the Commission purchased all the transmission lines belonging to
individual mining companies in the Red Lake district and now controls and
owns all of the transmission system originating out of the Ear Falls develop-
ment.
Extensions in Rural Power Districts
Applications for rural electrical service throughout the Province during
1939 equalled the annual records established the preceding two years. Ap-
proval was given for the construction of 2,300 miles of rural primary line to
serve more than 13,000 additional consumers. It is anticipated that this
demand for service in established rural power districts will continue on a
similar scale during the year 1940, and that much new rural territory in
northern Ontario will be served during the coming year.
The load required to serve these rural systems is increasing rapidly.
The aggregate load supplied to all rural power districts during 1939 amounted
to 61,634 horsepower, an increase of 15.5 per cent over the year 1938.
Reduced Capital Expenditure
Extensions to generating stations, transmission lines, rural distribution
networks, storage works, etc., during the year necessitated a capital expendi-
ture of $9,136,803.86 as compared with $10,876,458.83 in the previous year.
Of this amount, more than half was incurred for the extension of service in
rural power districts to which the Government contributed a grant-in-aid of
$2,447,003.77. In the co-operative systems, apart from rural extensions, the
chief capital expenditures were incurred for general extensions and additions
to transmission lines and to transformer stations. In the Northern Ontario
Properties, an extension to the Ear Falls development involved an expenditure
of about $525,000. Other capital expenditures incurred in northern Ontario
were chiefly for extensions to transmission lines and transformer stations
feeding mining properties.

Sales Promotion
As forecast in the last Annual Report, the Commission during the year
organized a Sales Promotion department, the chief function of which is to
make known to all Ontario citizens the nature of the benefits which they can
derive from making the fullest possible use in domestic and industrial fields,
of the ample supplies of low-cost power now available. In this work a number
of the municipal Hydro utilities have co-operated with successful results.
The programme for the year combined advertising with direct field work
promoting the further use of electric power in agriculture, industry, commerce
and the home. Interesting and worthwhile features were the domestic ap-
pliance campaign during the early summer months, the commercial lighting
surveys, and the farm demonstrations in the rural areas.
Capital Investment
The total investment of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of
Ontario in power undertakings and hydro-electric railways is $321,214,964.50
exclusive of government grants in respect of construction of rural power
districts' lines ($16,596,670.63) ; and the investment of the municipalities in

Financial Operating Results for 1939
The financial results of the Commission's operations continued to be
affected during the first half of the fiscal year ended October 31, 1939, by the
industrial recession of 1938. In its effect on revenue, this recession was more
severely felt during the early months of 1939 than during 1938. The revenue
from sales of primary power to companies served by the Niagara system was
about 10 per cent less during the first nine months of the 1938-1939 fiscal
year as compared with the corresponding period 1937-1938. The recession
also retarded materially the normal increase of power requirements by munici-
pal utilities in these months.
Loss of revenue from primary power sales during this period was, how-
ever, largely offset by increased sales of secondary power and by moderate
adjustments in interim rates to a few municipalities. In the closing months
of the year a sharp upturn of demands also occurred. The net result of these
factors was an increase of about $2,000,000 in revenue of the Niagara and other
co-operative systems of the Commission, — an amount sufficient to meet the
cost of scheduled increases in purchased power, the costs of general extensions
of service throughout the systems, and also the special costs occasioned by the
war-time civil security necessities.
Despite the difficult circumstances encountered, the Commission was
able to set aside for its various reserves an aggregate amount nearly equal in
total to that made in respect of 1938.
The revenues and expenditures of the Northern Ontario Properties in-
creased considerably during the fiscal year. As compared with the previous
year, revenues, at $4,181,200.93, are up 23 per cent, while expenditures, at
$2,143,035.95, increased about 10 per cent. Reserves for renewals and sink-
ing fund were $1,457,223.62, compared with $1,269,460.36, and the balance
available for contingencies, etc., totals $580,941.36, as compared with
$184,519.85 in 1938.

Revenue of Commission
The revenue of the Commission at interim rates from the municipal
utilities operating under cost contracts, from customers in rural power dis-
tricts and from other customers with whom — on behalf of the municipalities
— the Commission has special contracts, all within the Niagara, Georgian Bay,
Eastern Ontario and Thunder Bay systems, Manitoulin Island, Nipissing
rural power districts and Sudbury rural power district aggregated $32,639,-
427.41. The revenue of the Commission from customers served by the
Northern Ontario Properties, which are held and operated in trust for the
Province, was $4,181,200.93, making a total of $36,820,628.34.

War Efforts
No review of the past year's operations would be complete without refer-
ence to the steps taken to ensure that Hydro power will be available in ample
quantities to enable Ontario to make its maximum contribution to the war
efforts of Canada. .
There are three main fields in which additional Hydro power can be
used to expedite war-time production of needed supplies; first — in the mining
fields of northern Ontario; second — in the manufacturing industries of south-
ern Ontario; third — in the electro-chemical and electro-metallurgical indus-
tries.

War to-day is largely fought with machines made of metals and alloys.
The production of nickel and copper, important war metals, has increased
greatly in northern Ontario during recent years. Gold also may be considered
a war metal of great importance and the spectacular growth in its production
in Ontario, making a substantial contribution to the Dominion's financial
strength, has been greatly fostered by low-cost Hydro electrical service. To-
day, the reserves of hydro-electric power actually developed in northern
Ontario are sufficient for normal growth for two years and many easily
developed sites are available throughout the north.
The second field in which Hydro power may be needed in increasing
amounts is in connection with the manufacturing industries of southern
xvi THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 2 6
Ontario. Here the contract provisions made for increased supplies of pur-
chased power, aggregating 140,000 horsepower for the period 1940 to 1944,
can, under the terms of the contracts, be advanced if necessary.
The third field in which Hydro power can be used to stimulate war pro-
duction is in the electro-chemical and electro-metallurgical industries which
supply many war-time needs. In this field the Commission can supply large
amounts of at-will or secondary power without increasing its system capacity.
For the immediate future, therefore, there is ample power available in all
districts to enable Ontario's war effort to be speeded up and maintained at a
greatly enhanced level. During the past year many steps have been taken
and plans made to ensure that this situation shall continue no matter what
eventuates.
One important step taken was the passing by the Provincial Legislature
of The Power Control Act. Under this Act The Hydro-Electric Power Com-
mission of Ontario is given authority to regulate and control the generation,
transformation, transmission, distribution, supply and use of all power in the
Province. In brief, the object of this legislation is to give the Commission
the necessary authority to regulate Ontario's power supplies so that they may
make the maximum contribution to its war-time effort.
The Commission is also strengthening weak links in its extensive trans-
mission systems by the construction of two or three strategic interconnecting
and transmission lines of importance, both in eastern Ontario and in the
western portion of the Niagara district. Careful consideration is also being
given to industrial war demands, and continuous surveys are being made of
industrial requirements in order to anticipate, if possible, any exceptional
demands for war supplies of power, and to ensure that all plants at present
working on munitions, or likely to be doing so in the near future, may be
guaranteed an adequate and reliable power service whenever and wherever
it may be required.

THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT
OF
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
of Ontario
FOREWORD
and
Guide to the Report
THE Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario administers a co-
operative municipal-ownership enterprise, supplying power throughout
the Province of Ontario. The Commission was created in 1906 by special
act of the Legislature and followed investigations by advisory commissions
appointed as a result of public agitation to prevent monopoly and to provide
a more satisfactory supply of low-cost power in Southern Ontario. In 1907
The Power Commission Act (7-Edward VII Ch. 19) was passed amplifying
and extending the Act of 1906 and this Act — modified by numerous amending
acts which now form part of the Revised Statutes of Ontario, 1937, Chap. 62 —
constitutes the authority under which the Commission operates.
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario consists of a Chairman
and two Commissioners, all of whom are appointed by the Lieutenant-
Governor-in-Council to hold office during pleasure. One of the Commissioners
must be a member of the Executive Council and two may be members.
In 1909, work was commenced on a comprehensive transmission system
and by the end of 1910 power was being supplied to several municipalities.
The Commission has now been supplying electrical energy for more than
twenty-nine years and the Report contains diagrams depicting the growth of
the enterprise. During this period the costs of electricity to the consumer
have been substantially reduced and the finances of the enterprise have been
established on a secure foundation.
At the end of 1939 the Commission was serving 856 municipalities in
Ontario. This number included 26 cities, 103 towns, 300 villages and police
villages and 427 townships. With the exception of 14 suburban sections of
townships known as 'Voted areas", the townships and 117 of the smaller
villages are served as parts of 184 rural power districts.
Financial Features of Go-operative Systems
The basic principle governing the financial operations of the undertaking
is, that electrical service be given by the Commission to the municipalities
and by the municipalities to the ultimate consumers at cost. Cost includes
not only all operating and maintenance charges, interest on capital investment
and reserves for renewals or depreciation, for obsolescence and contingencies,
and for stabilization of rates, but also a reserve for sinking fund or capital
payments on debentures.
xxvi THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
The undertaking from its inception has been entirely self-supporting and
no contributions have been made from general taxes except in connection with
service in rural power districts. In this case, the Province, in pursuance of
its long established policy of assisting agriculture and with the approval of the
urban citizens, assists extension of rural electrical service by a grant-in-aid of
the capital cost and in other ways as specified and detailed in the Report.
As the principle of "service at cost" is radically different from that ob-
taining in private organizations, where profit is the governing feature, it
naturally results in different and in some ways unique administrative features.
The undertaking as a whole involves two distinct phases of operations as
follows:
The First phase of operations is the provision of the electrical power —
either by generation or purchase — and its transformation, transmission and
delivery in wholesale quantities to individual municipal utilities, to large in-
dustrial consumers, and to rural power districts. This phase of the operations
is performed by The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario as trustee
for the municipalities acting collectively in groups or "systems," and the
financial statements relating to these collective activities of the municipalities
are presented in Section IX of the Report. Each system of municipalities, as
provided in The Power Commission Act, forms an independent financial unit
and the accounts are therefore segregated and separately presented for each
system. In order, however, that there may be a comprehensive presentation
of the co-operative activities of the undertaking as a whole, there are pre-
sented, in addition, for the four main systems and miscellaneous co-operative
activities, a balance sheet of assets and liabilities, a statement of cost distri-
butions, a tabulation of fixed assets, and summary combined statements
respecting the various reserves.
The Second phase of operations is the retail distribution of electrical
energy to consumers within the limits of the areas served by the various
municipal utilities and rural power districts. In the case of rural power districts
which usually embrace portions of more than one township, The Hydro-
Electric Power Commission not only provides the power at wholesale, but also
— on behalf of the respective individual townships — attends to all physical and
financial operations connected with the distribution of energy at retail to the
consumers within the rural power districts. Summary financial statements
relating to the rural power districts are also presented in Section IX of the
Report, and a general report on their operation is given in Section III.
In the case of cities, towns, many villages and certain thickly populated
areas of townships, retail distribution of electrical energy provided by the
Commission is in general conducted by individual local municipal utility
commissions under the general supervision of The Hydro-Electric Power
Commission of Ontario. The balance sheets, operating reports and statistical
data relating to the individual urban electrical utilities are presented in Section
X of the Report.
For the Northern Ontario Properties held and operated by the Commis-
sion in trust for the Province there are also presented in Section IX financial
statements including a balance sheet, an operating account, and statements
respecting reserves and capital expenditures.

Further details respecting administration, and explanations of the finan-
cial tables presented in the Report are given in the introductions to sections
IX and X on pages 103 and 189.
Co-operative Systems Operating
From time to time in accordance with provisions in The Power Commission
Act various groups of municipalities have been co-ordinated to form systems
for the purpose of obtaining power supplies from convenient sources. In some
cases these small systems grew until their transmission lines interlocked with
those of adjacent systems and it proved beneficial to consolidate the trans-
mission networks and the financial and administrative features. In the well
settled parts of the Province, known as Old Ontario, this process has now
reached a more stable condition and the municipalities of the southern part
of the Province are now combined in three systems: the Niagara system, the
Georgian Bay system and the Eastern Ontario system. One other system of
partnership municipalities is known as the Thunder Bay system.
The Niagara System is the largest and most important system. It em-
braces municipalities in all the territory between Niagara Falls, Hamilton and
Toronto on the east and Windsor, Sarnia and Goderich on the west. It is
served with electrical energy generated at plants on the Niagara river, supple-
mented with power transmitted from generating plants on the Ottawa river
and with power purchased from Quebec companies.
The Georgian Bay System comprises municipalities in that part of the
Province which surrounds the southern end of Georgian Bay and lies to the
north of the territory served by the Niagara system. It includes the districts
surrounding lake Simcoe and extends as far north as Huntsville in the Lake of
Bays district and south to Port Perry. Its power supplies are derived chiefly
from local water power developments.
The Eastern Ontario System serves all of Ontario east of the areas com-
prising the Georgian Bay and the Niagara systems. It includes the districts
of Central Ontario, St. Lawrence, Rideau, Ottawa and Madawaska; formerly
separate systems. Its power supplies are from local developments supple-
mented by purchases from other sources.
The Thunder Bay System comprises the cities of Port Arthur and Fort
William, adjacent rural sections, the village of Nipigon, and the mining district
of Longlac. Two developments on the Nipigon river supply power.
A small rural district known as Manitoulin Rural Power District on
Manitoulin island in the northern area of lake Huron is served by the Com-
mission as an independent unit.
Northern Ontario Properties
In addition to its operations on behalf of the partner municipalities, the
Commission, under an agreement with the Province, holds and operates the
Northern Ontario Properties in trust for the Province. For the purposes of
financial administration these properties are treated as one unit. The
Northern Ontario Properties lie in the portion of the Province north of Lake
Nipissing and French River areas, exclusive of the territory served by the
Thunder Bay system. The principal areas in this vast territory at present

xxx THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
receiving service are the Nipissing District centering around the city of North
Bay on the shore of lake Nipissing; the Sudbury District comprising the city of
Sudbury and the adjacent mining area known as Sudbury Basin; the Abitibi
District comprising the territory served by 25-cycle power from the Abitibi
Canyon development, together with a small area in the southern portion of the
district of Sudbury in which mining properties are served with 60-cycle power;
the Patricia-St. Joseph District comprising the territory within transmission
distance of the Ear Falls development at the outlet of Lac Seul on the English
river including the Red Lake mining area, and the territory immediately north
of lake St. Joseph in the territorial district of Patricia served with power from
a development at Rat Rapids on the Albany river.
The geographic boundaries of the various systems are shown on the map
of transmission lines and stations at the back of the Report.
The power supplies for the systems and Northern Ontario districts are
listed in the first table of Section II of the Report on pages 6 and 7.
The Annual Report
The table of contents, pages xxi and xxii lists the matters dealt with in
the Report. At the end of the Report there is a comprehensive index. To
those not conversant with the Commission's Reports, the following notes will
be useful.
In Section II, pages 5 to 33, dealing with the operations of the systems,
are a number of diagrams showing graphically the monthly loads on the
several systems and districts. Tables are also presented showing the amounts
of power taken by the various municipalities during the past two years.
The rural distribution work of the Commission has proved of widespread
interest and special reference to this is made in Section III on pages 41 to 58.
In Sections V and VI will be found information respecting progress of
work on new power developments and on transmission system extensions,
together with photographic illustrations.
About one-half of the Report is devoted to financial and other statistical
data which are presented in two sections IX and X already referred to above.
Frequent enquiries for the rates for service to consumers are received
by the Commission. For the urban municipalities served by the Commission
these are given in statement "E" starting on page 346. For the rural power
districts they are given in a table starting on page 52. Certain statistical
data resulting from the application of the rates in urban utilities are given
in statement "D". This statement is prefaced by a special introduction
starting on page 328.
In its Annual Reports the Commission aims to present a comprehensive
statement respecting the activities of the whole undertaking under its adminis-
tration. Explanatory statements are suitably placed throughout the Report.
The Commission receives many letters asking for general information respect-
ing its activities, as well as requests for specific information concerning certain
phases of its operations. In most cases the enquiries can satisfactorily be
answered by simply directing attention to information presented in the Annual
Report.

RIGHT-OF-WAY AND PROPERTY
The Year's Operations
The continued rapid expansion of the Commission's operations resulted
in a large demand for new right-of-way, most of which was acquired by ease-
ment. Close to the larger urban centres, however, the fee of the land occupied
was usually acquired. The number of settlements made increased by
approximately 20 per cent.
Power Development Lands
A number of claims by owners of property abutting Chats lake were
settled.
The remaining outstanding claims on Frederick House lake were disposed
of.
Transmission and Distribution Lines
The large increase in rights required for rural distribution lines involved
the securing of 4,304 easements, 430 crossing agreements with other corpora-
tions, 472 tree trimming agreements, and settlement of 121 damage claims.
Transmission lines of importance in connection with which various rights
were acquired are as follows:
Niagara System — Vanessa junction to Norfolk transformer station, Sun
Brick junction to East York distribution station, Wellesley junction to
Wellesley distribution station, and Virgil junction to Virgil distribution
station.
Eastern Ontario System — Sidney transformer station to Brighton
distribution station.
Northern Ontario Properties — Preliminary application has been made
to the Province of Ontario for a License of Occupation for transmission line
from Ear Falls to Sioux Lookout, and from Ear Falls via Uchi Gold Mines to
Crow Lake.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 3
Application has been made for a License of Occupation for a transmission
line from a point on the Hunta-Sudbury line in Garibaldi Township to Ronda
Gold Mines in MacMurchy Township, and Sylvanite Gold Mines in Tyrell
Township.
Rights were completed for line between Crystal Falls and Coniston.
Further rights were acquired between Cameron Falls and Port Arthur.
Station Sites
Distribution station sites were purchased for an extension to Priceville
and Belleville and for new stations at Brampton, Treadwell, Wellesley,
Beaumaris, Fon thill, Clinton, Virgil, Fallingbrook, Hudson, Campbell ville,
Glencairn, Kingsway, and Roslyn. Patrolmen's cottage sites were secured
at McKirdy, Vittoria, Pelham and Sioux Lookout.
In the many negotiations conducted only eight owners appealed to the
Valuator, appointed under the Power Commission Act.
Service and Office Buildings
A block of property was acquired at the rear of the Head Office to provide
additional facilities.
A number of leases were entered into throughout the Province to provide
office space and storage facilities for the ever-increasing number of rural dis-
trict and inspection offices.
Sales and Leases
As in previous years, the policy of disposing of excess lands was continued,,
and a large number of properties were sold. The sale of several rights-of-way,,
the fee of which was not considered essential, was continued, transmission
line rights being retained thereon.
Lands owned by the Commission in connection with power developments,,
and also lands comprising several hundreds of miles of right-of-way not wholly
occupied by the Commission's equipment, were leased wherever possible to
adjoining property owners with the dual object of obtaining increased revenue
and decreasing maintenance costs. Practically all of the residences owned by
the Commission were occupied under lease. The number of income bearing
leases approximates 1,500 and the annual revenue is about $90,000.
Residences and other buildings in urban and rural districts, chiefly in
the Toronto and Niagara areas, were maintained in good condition and in
many cases were rehabilitated and improved in order to meet modern require-
ments and produce increased revenue.
Surveys
A large number of surveys of lands owned, and of properties being
acquired, were made. Surveys covering a large number of canal and river
crossings were completed for Government approval.
In practically all cases where surveys of lands held in fee were made,
standard H-E.P.C. monuments were placed to mark the boundaries; some
350 monuments were so placed.
4 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Surveys of right-of-way from Oshawa to Bowmanville, Newmarket to
Jersey Side Road were made and monuments placed to define limits of property
over which the Commission retained transmission line rights after sale of
property.
The more important field surveys made were in connection with the
following properties:
Generating Stations and Sites: Walkerton, Appleton and Pakenham.
Transformer and Distribution Stations: Pelham, Burlington, Beau-
maris, Virgil, Fonthill, Cainsville, Huntsville, Clinton, Penetang,
Vittoria, Roslyn, Birchcliff, East York, Fairbank, Sioux Lookout,
Kingswood, Glencairn, Hudson, Long Lac, Dumfries, Norfolk and
Waubaushene.
Patrolmen's Cottage Sites: LaForest, Shining Tree and Mattagami,
Islington Jet. to Wiltshire Jet. (Union St. to C.P.R. and Silverthorne
Avenue to Carrick Ave.) N.66x82. 4 1
Owing to the changed conditions obtaining, it has been found necessary
to re-survey the original high-tension transmission system constructed in 1909,
the easements for which expired in 1939. Survey work, which commenced
late in the year, will require at least a year to complete.
Records
The following is a brief statistical summary of the records made:
(1) All current deeds including plans attached were copied in the Title
Record Books, and Title record plans brought up to date.
(2) Plans were indexed for all purchases, sales, easements, leases, licenses of
occupation, crossings and title records.
(a) Purchases and sales of land.
(b) Easements.
(c) Leases and licenses of occupation, crossings, etc.
(d) Title record plans.
(3) The following were indexed:
Deeds of land 124
Tree trimming rights 420
Transmission line easements 1454
Taxes
Assessments covering Commission owned properties were received from
251 municipalities. Where assessments were not in conformity with the
provisions of The Power Commission Act, appeals were made, resulting
generally in a reduction of assessment and taxes.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION
SECTION II
OPERATION OF THE SYSTEMS
OPERATING conditions on all systems were favourable throughout the
year. No major failure of equipment occurred, and there were no serious
interruptions to service on any part of the Commission's undertakings.
Water conditions on the Ottawa, Trent, and Georgian Bay watersheds were
approximately normal, taking an average over the year. However, it was
necessary at times to draw heavily on storage reserves to maintain stream
flow, particularly towards the close of the fiscal year.
Load conditions
The total output during the year, including power generated in the
Commission's own generating stations and that purchased from outside
sources, amounted to 8,501,894,632 kilowatt-hours. This was the largest
output on record and exceeds that of the previous year by 12.1 per cent.
The October peak load, including primary and secondary, amounted to
1,963,471 horsepower, which was higher than that of any previous year and
exceeded the October peak of 1938 by 7.2 per cent.
The output for primary power purposes also exceeded all previous records
for this class of power. Primary demands during the year called for an
output on all systems of 6,575,944,747 kilowatt-hours, showing an increase
of 7.4 per cent over the previous year. The primary peak load rose to
1,669,337 horsepower in October, which is the highest primary load ever
carried and exceeded the October, 1938, primary peak by 185,000 horsepower
or 12.4 per cent.
The primary load, which is distinguished from the total load in that it
excludes secondary power supplied only as and when available, is of greater
significance in relation to revenue and general industrial conditions than is
the total load. Allowing for seasonal changes the demand for primary power
rose steadily through the year. In the co-operative systems, municipal and
rural demands contributed largely to this rise, further aided in September
and October by increases in industrial demands, presumably arising from
war preparedness. In the Northern Ontario Properties, the substantial
growth of recent years continued, the total primary peak load rising from
145,000 horsepower in 1938 to 168,000 horsepower in 1939, an increase of
16.0 per cent.

♦Because the peak loads on the various generating plants and purchased power sources usually occur
at different times, the sum of the individual peak loads would not represent the sum of the peak loads on
the systems. These, in the case of each system, must relate to the maximum load occurring at any one
time. Consequently, the column headed "Peak load" is not totalled.

CAUTION: The figures for "Maximum normal plant capacity" reflect the capacity of the
various plants under the most favourable operating conditions which can reasonably be considered
as normal, taking into consideration turbine capacity as well as generator capacity, and also the
net operating head and available water supply.
Owing, among other things, to changes in generating equipment due to wear and tear or
the replacement of parts, also to changes in limitations governing water levels and effective net
heads, the maximum normal plant capacity is not a fixed quantity but is one which must be
revised from time to time.
It is particularly important to bear in mind that the column headed "Maximum normal
plant capacity" cannot be taken as an indication of the dependable capacity of the various plants:
in some cases, it is, but in many cases it is not. Chief among the factors which govern the
maximum dependable capacity of a hydraulic power plant and which are not reflected in column
headed "Maximum normal plant capacity" are abnormal variations in water supply and oper-
ating limitations encountered when plants are so situated on a given stream as to be affected
by one another.

FORESTRY DIVISION
The Forestry division continued its regular transmission and rural line-
clearing operations to protect the Commission's lines, equipment and service
from tree interference.
Reforestation was continued, but confined to replacement plantings on
non-revenue producing lands in the Niagara system. Work was also carried
out on generating and transformer station grounds for the preservation and
maintenance of existing trees and shrubs.
Transmission and Rural Line-clearing Operations
The year's operations involved treatment of 97,000 trees and 824 pole
spans of underbrush spread over 3,907 miles of power transmission and
telephone line. Rural work was increased by reason of county and township
roads taken over by the Department of Highways and the construction of
new lines along the King's highways.

SYMMETRICAL PRUNING OF TREES BORDERING HIGHWAYS
New Construction Line-Clearing Operations
Operations were performed to obtain clearance for approximately 137
miles of new transmission and rural line. This work involved trimming of
3,400 trees, and removal of 680 diseased and dangerous trees.
Reforestation
Reforestation operations involved planting of approximately 3,100 conif-
erous and deciduous trees to replace losses at DeCew and Queenston gener-
ating stations and Toronto Power transformer station.
Municipal Hydro Systems
Line-clearing operations were performed for fifteen municipalities. This
work involved treatment of 3,450 trees spread over approximately 59 miles
of distribution line.
RADIO COMMUNICATION
The Commission short-wave radio stations at Toronto and in the gener-
ating stations at Cameron Falls, Ear Falls and Rat Rapids have continued
10 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
to operate satisfactorily. Two additional stations were placed in service at
Timmins and Frederick House Lake dam in the Abitibi district.
New transmitting equipment was purchased to improve service com-
munication between Toronto and Ear Falls and Rat Rapids generating
stations.
NIAGARA SYSTEM
The total output on the Niagara system, which distributes a little more
than 70 per cent of all the power distributed by the Commission, rose to
new heights in 1939, exceeding the total output in the previous year by
11.6 per cent. Approximately 77 per cent of the total output was consumed
in primary services. Compared with the previous year, the output for
primary power purposes was 4.9 per cent greater. At the commencement of
the year primary demands were on about the same level as in the like period
a year earlier, but as the year advanced the 1939 level rose steadily above
the level of 1938 until near the end when a sharply rising trend developed.
At the close of the fiscal year primary demands were 13 per cent higher. In
October, 1939, the system primary peak load was 1,228,552 horsepower, or
13.1 per cent greater than in October, 1938, and was in excess of the highest
previous peak on record. Load growth continued through November and
December.
During the major portion of the year, power resources available to the
system were fully loaded. In addition to meeting all primary power re-
quirements, the system produced approximately 1,400,000,000 kilowatt-hours
for delivery to users of secondary power.
Transmission line operating conditions throughout the year were most
favourable. Interruptions to service caused by lightning, sleet, and gales,
the chief enemies of electric-power transmission, were relatively few, and
little damage was done to lines or equipment. During the year there were
two complete failures to service of all customers on the Dominion Power and
Transmission division of the Niagara system. There was also one complete
interruption on the 220,000-volt lines supplying power from eastern sources.
The Niagara river plants have been operated in conjunction with Quebec t
power sources to meet system load requirements in the most economical
manner. In general, the full output of these plants, as governed by water
limitations and seasonal power demands, has been available throughout the
year. Little trouble was experienced from ice conditions in the Niagara
river during the winter. On only one occasion, January 30, was there any
appreciable loss in Niagara generating capacity from this cause.
The output of the two units at the Canadian Niagara Company's plant,
reserved for the Commission's use, was available to the Niagara system
throughout the year. Practically none of the usual trouble from ice at the
Canadian Niagara Power Company's plant was experienced during the
winter. On only one occasion, January 30 and 31, was there any deficiency
in the supply to the Commission from this cause. The power agreement

with the Canadian Niagara Power Company, which expired on April 30,
1939, was renewed with slight modifications for a further period of five years.
Operation of the Chats Falls generating station encountered no special
difficulties during the year, although on one occasion, lasting for the greater
part of two days, the worst frazil ice conditions since the plant commenced
operation were experienced. At one time the output of the plant was con-
fined to one unit, and that under the most difficult operating conditions.
Otherwise the full output of the plant, as governed by the Ottawa river
flow, was available to the Niagara system.
12 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
On the Ottawa river the natural run-off was subnormal during the fall
months of 1938 to the extent that it almost equalled the low conditions ex-
perienced during the fall of 1933. This condition continued throughout the
winter months with the result that the storage reserves were drawn on to
the limit in order to maintain a winter flow of 19,000 to 22,000 cubic feet
per second. Storage conditions were further impaired, almost to the danger
point, by the latest spring thaw since the plant began operation. The spring
run-off commenced on April 6, which was about two weeks later than usual.
The maximum 24-hour river flow passing the plant was 134,550 cubic feet
per second on May 15, and the minimum 24-hour flow for the year, 18,129
cubic feet per second, occurred on February 6. While the total volume of
water passing the plant for the year was approximately average, river flow
conditions as a whole were less advantageous than usual.
The frequency-changer set at Chats Falls was available as a reserve
source of supply for the Eastern Ontario system during the year. The set
was used on many occasions, chiefly over the Eastern Ontario system's daily
peak periods, to avoid reductions in the supply of secondary power.
The DeCew Falls generating station operated to use all the water avail-
able throughout the year. The load demands on the Dominion Power and
Transmission division, in excess of the capacity available at the DeCew Falls
generating station, were met by the frequency-changer set at Niagara Falls.
This set, which was supplied from one of the units at the Toronto Power
plant, was used on practically every working day. To complete the usual
maintenance schedule at the DeCew Falls generating station, No. 8 generator
was taken out of service for general overhaul on October 16. This reduction
in capacity, together with increasing load demands, resulted in a shortage
of 60-cycle power for the Dominion Power and Transmission division which
was met by a temporary supply of approximately 5,000 horsepower from a
generating station of the Department of Transport on the Welland Ship
canal.
The Hamilton steam station was available during the year as a limited
standby reserve for the Dominion Power and Transmission division. The
steam station rendered assistance on one day, December 28, 1938, when the
output of the DeCew Falls generating station was restricted due to a large
accumulation of frazil ice in the forebay. Up to this time the normal oper-
ating practice was to keep one of the two steam units available for power
purposes, and the generator of the other unit was operated as a synchronous
condenser floating on the Hamilton section of the 60-cycle system. On
December 28, 1938, the operation of the one generator as a synchronous
condenser was discontinued. The boiler plant was used for generation of
steam for commercial purposes throughout the year.
Under the terms of the Quebec power agreements an additional 80,000
horsepower became available to the Niagara system on November 1, 1938.
Power supplies during the year from the Quebec sources were: — Gatineau
Power Company 200,000 horsepower, Beauharnois Light, Heat and Power
Company 150,000 horsepower, Maclaren-Quebec Power Company 60,000
horsepower and the Ottawa Valley Power Company 96,000 horsepower,
making a total delivery from eastern sources, including the Commission's half
of the Chats Falls plant, of 602,000 horsepower.

GEORGIAN BAY SYSTEM
The Georgian Bay system peak load was 13.2 per cent, and the energy
distributed 10.4 per cent, in excess of last year. The addition of the Ragged
Rapids plant to the system generating sources provided for the increase in
system energy requirements and at the same time allowed a decrease in the
energy transferred from the Niagara system, this transfer being only 45 per
cent of that in 1938.
After November 23, following final tests and adjustments, both units
at Ragged Rapids plant were available for service.
As a result of the increased generating capacity provided by the new
generating station at Ragged Rapids, assistance was required from Niagara
system in November, December, January and June only over peak periods.
No assistance was required in February, March, April and May, excepting
1940

for short intervals during line trouble. In July, August, September and
October assistance was required to supply both peaks and energy, as system
loads were at their maximum in July and August and certain units were out
of service in September and October for maintenance.
Assistance was given the Orillia Water, Light and Power Commission
to the extent of approximately 32,000 kilowatt-hours between October 14
and 31. This was required due to low river flows past Orillia plants.
The only serious interruptions of power service occurred December 27
when rain and soft snow, followed by a sudden drop in temperature and
accompanied by extremely high wind, caused violent whipping of transmis-
sion lines, and customers in Owen Sound area had a series of interruptions
totalling four to five hours. As a result of this storm the town of Wingham
also was without power for nearly 24 hours, due to failure of power trans-
formers in Wingham distributing station. Line patrol and other work inci-
dental to the restoration of service was made extremely difficult owing to
the practically impassable condition of snow-blocked roads.
The automatic reclosing feature placed in service on tie line and radial
feeder oil switches at Waubaushene and Fergusonvale auto-transformer
stations during the year has resulted in adding still further to the continuity
of service.

THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF
No. 26
At Eugenia Falls generating station the wooden housing of No. 2 surge
tank was destroyed by fire April 29, 1939. Repairs were made to the con-
crete pedestals supporting this tank. The steel tank and supporting columns
were cleaned off and painted, following which reconstruction of the housing
was undertaken by the Construction department.
At Sauble Falls generating station all hydraulic and electrical equipment
was removed to storage, the old building demolished and the site cleaned up.

EASTERN ONTARIO SYSTEM
The load on the Eastern Ontario system reflected a slowing down in
industrial activities during the earlier months of the fiscal year. However,
beginning with the month of April the primary peak demand showed a
substantial increase which continued until the end of the calendar year.
The primary energy demand showed a slight decrease during the months of
November and December, 1938, and then continued at a slightly less than
normal rate of increase until the month of September when a substantial
increase was shown which continued until the end of the calendar year 1939.
The primary peak, which amounted- to 141,908 horsepower in the month of
1940

October, 1939, represented an increase of 10.4 per cent over the corresponding
month of the previous year and exceeded all recorded maxima. The total
primary energy, which amounted to 495,464,255 kilowatt-hours, represented
an increase of 3.3 per cent over the previous fiscal year.
Secondary energy, amounting to a total of 157,132,500 kilowatt-hours,
was delivered to the steam generator at the Howard Smith Paper Mills at
Cornwall. Of this amount, 114,800,000 kilowatt-hours were supplied direct
from Eastern Ontario system generating and purchased sources, and the
balance by transfer from the Niagara system. Compared with the previous
year, the total output of secondary energy from all sources represented an
increase of 4.5 per cent.
In order to improve local operating conditions and provide increased
service security to customers in Prince Edward county, a new section of
44,000- volt line, approximately 4.7 miles in length, was placed in service on
January 15, thereby providing a direct source of supply to the above cus-
tomers from Sidney terminal station.
The newly constructed 44,000-volt line between Sills Island generating
station near Frankford and Sidney terminal station, together with a new
3-phase, 3,000-kv-a transformer station, was placed in service on February 19.
The system power resources, including generating capacity and power
purchased under contract, were at all times sufficient to meet all primary
demands. On one occasion, however, as a result of serious damage to the
44,000-volt line network caused by winds of cyclonic proportions on Sep-
tember 8, it became necessary to operate the frequency-changer set at Chats
Falls in order to meet the primary demand of the Central Ontario district.

Stream flow conditions on the Trent river were, on the whole, fairly
satisfactory throughout the year. Rainfall was considerably below normal
during months of May and June. July average was well above normal, but
actually the dry period lasted until July 27, the total for the month being
brought above normal by exceptionally heavy rainfall during the last four
days. Precipitation remained practically normal during the months of
August and September, but dropped to approximately 89 per cent of normal
during the month of October.
During the year the usual programme of general plant inspection and
maintenance was carried out. A number of turbines were unwatered and
inspected, and necessary repairs and adjustments made. The governors in
the various plants were inspected and adjusted. Several of the forebays
were unwatered, racks cleaned, sunken debris removed, and the concrete
carefully inspected. Lightning arresters were overhauled during the winter
season.

THUNDER BAY SYSTEM
The maximum twenty-minute peak of the primary load on the Thunder
Bay system was 98,934 horsepower. This is 3.2 per cent greater than in
1938, and is the highest primary peak in the history of this system. The
primary energy showed an increase of 2.7 per cent over last year.
The market for secondary power (used by paper mills for the electrical
generation of steam) was great enough to utilize more than the remaining
available generating capacity for the major portion of the time. Arrange-
ments have, therefore, been in force, similar to those existing in 1938, whereby
the paper mills under the control of the Abitibi Power and Paper Company
were permitted to obtain further secondary power from the Kaministiquia
Power Company, a subsidiary of the Abitibi Power and Paper Company,
through the Commission's transformers and over the Commission's trans-
mission circuits.

There has been no restriction of primary power supply to any customer
and no serious interruption to service. It has been necessary on occasions to
restrict the secondary load demands of customers for short periods, in order
to carry the system load with satisfactory frequency and voltage regulation.
During the latter part of the summer it became apparent the inflow into
lake Nipigon was below normal, and the system was, therefore, limited to
an average weekly withdrawal of 8,400 cubic feet per second, which flow
was fully utilized. This resulted in a slight decrease in the amount of energy
available for secondary power.
The generating and transformer stations have all functioned reliably
throughout the year. During the period March 25 to April 15, number 3
unit at Alexander generating station was out of service while repairs were
made to the thrust bearing which had become defective.
Routine maintenance work on the generator units at Cameron Falls and
Alexander generating station has been done when the load permitted indi-
vidual units to be temporarily released from service.
Service on the 110,000- volt lines to Long Lac transformer station and
the 44,000-volt lines supplying power to the mines in the Beardmore, Bank-
field and Little Long Lac areas has been satisfactory, but there have been a
number of occasions when service has been interrupted due to flashover
during electrical storms, trees falling over the line and highway blasting
operations. In some sections the route of the lines has been altered in order
to provide satisfactory clearance for the new Trans-Canada highway.
The precipitation of the watershed supplying this system has been 25.0
inches which is about average for this district. The elevation of lake Nipigon
on October 31 was 850.94 as compared with 852.04 for the same time last
year.

Nipissing District
During the peak load period, November, 1938, to January, 1939, it was
necessary to transfer power to the district over the tie line from Crystal Falls
generating station. Owing to lack of precipitation and increasing loads,
and to conserve available storage water during the latter part of the year,
energy was transferred to the district from Crystal Falls generating station.
Sudbury District
Operating conditions were normal during the year.
Anticipating future load increases, which will necessitate the operating
voltage of the Crystal Falls-Coniston line being increased, this line was taken
out of service during parts of the day during the low-load period, August 1
to August 15, to re-insulate it for 110,000- volt operation.

The stream flow at Abitibi Canyon was at all times adequate to generate
primary and secondary load demands. Two-way radiophone communica-
tion, which was installed at Timmins transformer station and at Frederick
House Lake dam to facilitate efficient control of the Frederick House Lake
storage basin, was placed in service on April 8 and operated satisfactorily
throughout the remainder of the year.
The operation of Abitibi Canyon generating station was satisfactory
throughout the year. Tailrace gates, with a motor-driven handling mechan-
ism, which were installed during December, have greatly facilitated the
unwatering of draft tubes for inspection and maintenance purposes.
During January, fourteen newly completed operators' houses and a new
recreation hall at Abitibi Canyon were occupied. The new houses replace
temporary construction dwellings which many of the permanent staff had
been occupying, and the new recreation hall adds greatly to entertainment
facilities in this isolated colony.
All transformer stations operated satisfactorily throughout the year.
The 1,000-kv-a Bourkes transformer station was permanently removed
from service in November, the sole mining customer served from this station
having abandoned operations.
Service to Ronda Gold Mines was discontinued on October 17 and that
to Kirkland Gold Rand on June 21.
A new 1,000-kv-a transformer station at Shiningtree, in which the
equipment from Bourkes had been utilized, was placed in service on Decem-
ber 20.
There were seventeen single-circuit and fourteen double-circuit auto-
matic outages on the high-tension line between Abitibi Canyon and Copper
Cliff. Of these, twenty-five were attributed to lightning, three to inter-

ference between telephone and power conductors during a windstorm, one
to failure of a power conductor jumper, one to a rope being blown across
the conductors and one to an undetermined cause. A three-hour pre-
arranged double-circuit outage was necessary in July to permit repairs to a
ground wire which was badly damaged by lightning.
There were sixteen automatic outages on the high-tension line between
Abitibi Canyon and Kirkland Lake, Larder Lake and Matachewan. Of
these, five were attributed to lightning, eight to windstorms, one to a fallen
tree, and two to causes external to the line.
Patricia-St. Joseph District
The fiscal year was marked by the placing in service of three new 44,000-
volt transmission lines; one transformer station; two distributing stations,
and the provision of power to five new customers. Since September 4, when
the 113-mile 44,000- volt transmission line between Uchi lake and Pickle
lake was placed in service, together with the Crow River transformer station,
the Patricia and St. Joseph districts have been operated in parallel, and in
future will be known as Patricia-St. Joseph district. The load of these
combined districts shows a considerable increase, the maximum yearly
twenty-minute peak being 32 per cent higher, and the energy generated
being 29 per cent greater than in the previous year.

On November 28, 1938, operations at the Red Lake Gold Shore Mines
were recommenced under the control and name of Hasaga Gold Mines.
The construction of a 44,000-volt wood-pole line, 49 miles long, between
Ear Falls generating station and Uchi Gold Mines was completed, and this
customer received power on January 15. The mill at Uchi Gold Mines
commenced operation in May. Power was supplied to Cochenour-Willians
Gold Mines on January 19, over a short 44,000-volt tap line, and on July 26
McMarmac Mines received power at 2,300-volts through the Cochenour-
Willians Gold Mines station. On August 30, a 44,000-volt transmission line,
85 miles in length, between Ear Falls generating station and a new distri-
buting station at Sioux Lookout, was placed in service, supplying power to
this municipality. A distributing station was also connected to this line at
Hudson, and power was supplied to this municipality on October 27. The
Albany River Gold Mines recommenced operations on October 15, under
the control of the Pickle Crow Gold Mines.
A five-mile section of 22,000-volt transmission line between Crow River
transformer station and Pickle Crow Gold Mines was placed in service in
September, with selective switches at three junctions so that the customers
could be supplied from this new line or the original line.

The flow in the English river has been regulated and controlled by
means of the Lac Seul conservation dam at Ear Falls as required by the
Lake-of-the- Woods Control Board.
All electrical and hydraulic equipment at Rat Rapids generating station
on the Albany river has functioned satisfactorily, routine inspections and
maintenance only being required. During September and October the Rat
Rapids generating station was operated at full capacity and at a high load
factor in order to utilize the high inflow to lake St. Joseph without wastage
of water.
The 44,000 and 22,000-volt transmission lines have operated satisfac-
torily and have been maintained in good condition. Eight new patrol points,
four of them in very remote country, have been established to take care of
the new line sections. There were twelve occasions on which outages oc-
curred on the transmission lines during electrical storms. On two of these
occasions poles and crossarms were shattered and had to be replaced. A
forest fire along the right-of-way of the Ear Falls- Uchi line caused damage
to a few poles and crossarms; the poles were stubbed and the crossarms
replaced.
The precipitation in the vicinity of Ear Falls generating station has
been above average, 26.95 inches being recorded. The elevation of Lac Seul
on October 31 was 1,170.05 as compared with 1,170.65 at the same date last
year. The precipitation in the vicinity of Rat Rapids generating station
was relatively high, a total of 30.41 inches being recorded. The elevation
of lake St. Joseph on October 31 was 1,226.49 as compared with 1,225.54
for the same date last year.

SECTION III
MUNICIPAL WORK
THE Commission acts in an advisory capacity to the municipalities with
which it has contracts, and assists the municipal officials to purchase,
construct or extend distribution systems. As provided under The Power
Commission Act, all rate adjustments are approved by the Commission,
therefore, a study of the operating conditions of all utilities is made annually
and adjustments recommended.
In rural power districts, the Commission on behalf of the township cor-
porations operates the rural power systems, and distributes electrical energy
to the customers of the respective corporations in all such rural power districts.
NIAGARA SYSTEM
Under the terms of contracts entered into during the fiscal year 1938
the Commission took delivery of the following additional amounts of power
from:
horsepower
Gatineau Power Company and Gatineau Transmission Com-
pany 35,000
Beauharnois Light, Heat and Power Company and Coteau
Rapids Transmission Company Limited 25,000
Maclaren-Quebec Power Company and The James Maclaren
Company Limited 20,000
Total additional power taken 80,000
General industrial load conditions were affected by the unrest and un-
certain world conditions and the expected normal load increases of the
municipal Hydro utilities did not materialize until near the close of the fiscal
year. As a result, the average load growth for this system was lower than
the expected load.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 35
Engineering Assistance to Municipalities
General engineering assistance was given to nearly all municipalities of
the Niagara system respecting the operation and management of their local
Hydro utilities.
Certain municipalities received special engineering advice and assistance
respecting matters which are more fully referred to below:
Ailsa Craig — Plans were prepared for changing the local distribution
system from 4,000 volts to 8,000 volts.
Beamsville — The distribution system is being changed from 66% cycles
to 25 cycles. It is expected the actual work of change-over will be completed
in 1940.
Blenheim — A new Hydro building costing $10,000 was completed and
officially opened April, 1939.
Brantford — All domestic and commercial consumers supplied from the
66%-cycle system having had their services changed to 25 cycles, arrange-
ments are being made to complete the change-over to 25-cycle operation of
the industrial power customers. This work will be completed early in 1940.
Chatham — A new substation on Queen street costing $39,500 was
completed and put in service, thereby adding 1,500 kv-a capacity to the
local system.
Dresden — To provide consumers with better facilities for paying their
accounts, and also to provide space for displaying merchandise, a new office
was arranged for.
Dunnville — Additions and improvements to the substation and the
distributing system were undertaken. The major work included conversion
from 2,200 volts to 4,000 volts and new switchboard facilities.
Dutton — A rearrangement of the main distribution feeder was com-
pleted.
Embro — A major increase in distribution feeder capacity was made to
take care of a rapid increase in load.
Fergus — To improve regulation, a change of distribution voltage from
2,200 to 4,000 volts was made.
Forest — At a cost of about $5,000, greater capacity in secondary distri-
bution lines and transformers is being provided.
Forest Hill — The 4,000-volt supply from the Toronto system was
changed to feed into the new substation of the local system.
Harrow — On February 1, the Hydro office for the town and rural power
districts of Harrow and Amherstburg, was moved into the new community
hall.
La Salle — Arrangements were made for a new storehouse and office
building.
London — The Public Utilities Commission installed additional under-
ground-feeder cable connecting its main substations. Additional substation
transformer capacity was also installed.
36 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Lucan — To improve the lighting and appearance of the business section
of the main street, 26 ornamental street-lighting standards with 300-watt
lamps were erected. Poles and wires were removed and placed in the rear
of the buildings.
Milton — During the year, the local commission arranged for an office
building on Main street, including storeroom and garage.
Mitchell — The primary distribution voltage was changed from 1,100 to
4,000 volts.
Mount Brydges — Improved street lighting was installed on the main
street.
North York Township — A new distributing station with new 4,000-
volt feeders was established in the southern part of the township.
Oil Springs — Arrangements were made for a new office building and
storehouse costing approximately $5,500. This building will accommodate
the staff of the local system and also the staff of the Oil Springs rural power
district.
Parkhill — Extensive changes were made to the distribution system, and
arrangements have been made to change the voltage from 4,000 to 8,000
volts.
Ridgetown — The ornamental street-lighting system in the business sec-
tion of the town was improved by changes in the ornamental standards to
give greater mounting height and better light distribution.
St. Jacobs — A large part of the secondary distribution system is being
rebuilt.
St. Marys — An office building, together with combined storeroom and
garage facilities, were constructed on Wellington street as a much needed
improvement in the utility accommodation of the local system.
St. Thomas — A current-carrier control system is being installed at a
cost of $22,000. This will control 1,700 water heaters, representing a load
of 800 horsepower and will have capacity to handle double this load.
Sarnia — Alterations to the No. 1 substation building were completed at
a cost of $6,100 to provide better facilities for garage, storehouse, etc.
Streetsville — The local commission arranged for a suitable office build-
ing.
Thamesville — Improved street lighting was provided in the business
section of the town by the replacement of the regular pole-type street lamps
with ornamental fixtures.
Thorold — Recommendations were made to the municipality with regard
to improving the street-lighting system, with special reference to the business
section.
Tillsonburg — Arrangements were made to improve substation equip-
ment and distribution system.
Wallaceburg — A new brick, one-storey storehouse and garage was com-
pleted at a cost of $6,600. Several additional street lamps were placed in
various parts of the town.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 37
GEORGIAN BAY SYSTEM
Load increases were recorded on this system during the year in both
urban municipalities and rural power districts. The increase in the total
system average load sold over 1938 was 8.6 per cent and the increase in the
maximum peak established during the year was 13.2 per cent.
Sixty- three municipalities were served, fifty-nine being partners securing
power on a cost basis and four system customers. With few exceptions load
increases occurred in these municipalities.
The total average load taken by urban municipalities increased by 6.3
per cent over the previous year. The total average load sold in rural power
districts increased by approximately 20 per cent over 1938 and load increases
were recorded in practically all of these rural power districts.
General engineering advice and assistance was given to all urban munici-
palities on the Georgian Bay system in connection with the operation of
local distribution systems.
EASTERN ONTARIO SYSTEM
The power sold on the Eastern Ontario system continued its normal
increase during the year 1939 and with few exceptions the load in all rural
power districts and urban municipalities increased. The total amount of
power delivered to urban municipalities and rural power districts amounted
to 108,242 horsepower in 1939, an increase of 7.2 per cent over the 1938 load
of 101,000 horsepower.
The Eastern Ontario system is now taking all the power available from
the Commission's generating stations on the Eastern Ontario system, and is
also taking all the 60-cycle power provided under the Commission's contract
with the Gatineau Power Company. For immediate future requirements,
this system can obtain a supply of power from the Niagara system through
the frequency changer at Chats Falls.
General engineering assistance was given to nearly all municipalities on
the Eastern Ontario system in connection with the operation and manage-
ment of their local Hydro utilities. Certain municipalities received special
engineering advice and assistance with regard to matters detailed below:
Arnprior — The ratepayers on November 24, 1938, voted in favour of
purchasing the local distribution system and entering into a cost contract
for a supply of power, to commence on January 1, 1939.
Belleville — Detailed plans have been prepared for installing high fre-
quency control of flat-rate water heaters throughout the city.
Marmora — The distribution system was changed from 2,300 volts to
4,000 volts.
Millbrook — On December 1, 1938, the municipality, following a munici-
pal vote, purchased its distribution system from the Commission and is now
operating under a cost contract.
38 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Orono — This police village purchased its distribution system from the
Commission on November 1, 1938, following a favourable vote, and is now
operating under a cost contract.
Pic ton — Poles and wires were removed from the business section of the
main street and modern street lighting installed.
Prescott — Plans and specifications were prepared for the installation of
a new street-lighting system operated by relays. The voltage of the distri-
bution system is being changed from 2,300 to 4,000 volts.
Stirling — Increased transformer capacity was installed in the municipal
station.
Whitby — All poles and overhead wires were removed from the business
section of the town and a new underground street-lighting system was
installed.
THUNDER BAY SYSTEM
The Thunder Bay system comprises the cities of Port Arthur and Fort
William, the rural districts lying east and west of these cities and the town-
ship of Nipigon. It also serves the mining area from lake Nipigon eastward
to Little Long Lac. Approximately one-half of all the power supplied on
this system is utilized by pulp and paper mills; about one-eighth is utilized
for operating terminal grain elevators; about one-eighth for the mining
industry; and about one-quarter by urban and rural consumers. In conse-
quence of these conditions wide variations in system demands occur from
year to year, depending upon crop conditions, and the stability of the pulp
and paper market.
There was a net increase of about two per cent in the total average load
sold on the Thunder Bay system during 1939. The municipal load sold
increased by 7.3 per cent, and the rural load by 34 per cent. The power
supplied to the mining industry was 26 per cent greater, and the load taken
by the pulp and paper industry remained at about the same level.
Engineering assistance and advice relating to the operation of the local
distribution systems was given to the cities of Fort William and Port Arthur,
also to Nipigon township.

During 1939 the Provincial Government, by special legislation, extended
to the rural power districts of northern Ontario the 50 per cent grant-in-aid
which applies to the capital cost of primary and secondary distribution lines
and equipment in the rural power districts of the co-operative systems in
southern Ontario. This enabled arrangements to be made for supplying
Hydro service to many rural districts throughout northern Ontario. Public
meetings were held, information was submitted, and contracts were entered
into in several areas. Four large rural power districts, each comprising
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 39
several organized as well as unorganized townships, were formed and it is
expected that during 1940 several distribution systems will be constructed
and placed in operation.
To provide for the rapidly expanding load in the Sudbury rural power
district a new rural office, with a complete staff and equipment for handling
rural service exclusively, was established at Sudbury. Information was sup-
plied to several new rural areas adjacent to the city and a considerable ex-
pansion in rural service is anticipated.
NORTHERN ONTARIO PROPERTIES
The Northern Ontario Properties held and operated by the Commission
on behalf of the Province serve chiefly mines and mining communities in
various areas of the Province north of lakes Huron and Superior between the
Manitoba and Quebec interprovincial boundaries, excluding the area served
by the Thunder Bay system. At the close of the year power was supplied
to 38 mining properties, 2 cities, 4 towns, 9 villages, hamlets and mining
townsites, and 3 rural power districts.
As in previous years, there was great expansion in load growth in
Northern Ontario Properties during 1939. The total average load sold was
approximately 31,000 horsepower greater than for the previous year, repre-
senting an increase of 24 per cent.
Nipissing District
The city of North Bay, the town of Powassan and the village of Callander
comprise the Nipissing district. Power is supplied from three hydro-electric
generating plants on the South river with a transmission tie line connection
to the Crystal Falls development on the Sturgeon river. There was an
increase of approximately 4 per cent in the total load sold. During the year
negotiations were conducted with the council of the city of North Bay re-
garding the sale of the local distribution system to the corporation.
Sudbury District
This district serves the city of Sudbury and adjacent areas. Power is
supplied to the city of Sudbury and the town of Capreol at a fixed rate, also
to the Sudbury rural power district and for mining and milling operations
to the Falconbridge and International Nickel mines. The utilization of
power is divided approximately one-half for municipal and rural, and one-
half for mining purposes. The Sudbury city peak load recorded an increase
of 12 per cent, and the Falconbridge Nickel mine increased its 60-cycle peak
load by 34 per cent. The total average load sold in the district was approxi-
mately 13.4 per cent greater than in 1938.
Engineering advice and assistance was given to the local commissions of
the city of Sudbury and the town of Capreol with respect to the operation of
their local distribution systems.
Abitibi District
The Abitibi district comprises the area served by the Abitibi Canyon
development and connecting transmission lines. Power is supplied to the
mining districts of Sudbury, Matachewan, Porcupine, Ramore, Kirkland
40 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Lake and Larder Lake. The rapid expansion in load growth continued
throughout 1939 with 28 mines served at the close of the year. The total
annual average load sold in the district increased by 26 per cent over 1938.
The various mining properties under contract with the Commission, as
well as many prospective properties, also mining properties in the develop-
ment stage were visited periodically during the year for the purpose of
rendering assistance and giving information with respect to power supply
problems.
To provide for power supply to the Denison Nickel mine, which is situ-
ated in the Abitibi district, power is purchased from the Abitibi Power &
Paper Company's hydro-electric development at Espanola and transmitted
to the mine. No changes occurred in this service during the year.
Service is given in the Abitibi district to four mining townsites at Kearns,
King Kirkland, Matachewan and Hislop, also to the town of Matheson and
the village of Ramore. The Kearns mining townsite was added during the
year and service given to 104 new customers. In all these areas increases
were recorded, both in the average load sold and in new consumers served.
Patricia-St. Joseph District
During the year the Patricia district, served from Ear Falls generating
station, and the St. Joseph district, served from Rat Rapids generating
station, were connected by tie transmission lines. The generating and trans-
mission facilities are now operated in parallel as a co-ordinated system, and
the two districts will in future be known as the Patricia-St. Joseph district.
The former Patricia district served the Red Lake and Woman Lake
mining areas and the St. Joseph district served the Pickle Lake mining area.
In the Patricia district power was supplied to seven mining properties, also
to the mining townsite of Red Lake, the hamlet of Hudson and the town of
Sioux Lookout. The average load sold increased during the year by ap-
proximately 40 per cent.
Service was given for the first time to the town of Sioux Lookout and
the hamlet of Hudson; a distribution system being constructed in the latter
place and placed in operation during the month of October. The Hudson
distribution system, together with that at the Red Lake mining townsite, is
operated by the Commission; the distribution system at Sioux Lookout is
operated by a local commission.
In the St. Joseph district two mining properties are served, the Central
Patricia and Pickle Crow companies. The total average load sold in this
district increased six per cent.
All mining properties under contract with the Commission, together
with mines in the prospective and development stages, were visited on
various occasions for the purpose of rendering advice and engineering assist-
ance in connection with power supply problems. Investigations and studies
were made concerning service to the Central Patricia townsite, now partially
served by the Central Patricia mine, with a view to supplying more complete
service in this area.

RURAL ELECTRICAL SERVICE
IN ONTARIO
AGRICULTURE, including stock-raising and horticulture, is the chief single
. industry of the Canadian people, employing over one-third of the gainfully-
occupied males. In addition, it provides the raw material for many Canadian
manufactures, and its products in raw and manufactured form constitute a
very large percentage of Canadian exports. The Province of Ontario, while
highly industrialized within its urban centres, also occupies a very prominent
position in the agricultural development of Canada. As an example — the
current value of farm capital in Ontario (including lands and buildings,
implements and machinery, live stock) is approximately 29 per cent of the
corresponding figure for the whole of Canada.
The land area of the Province of Ontario extends over a vast area of
363,282 square miles, of which 35,689 square miles are occupied for agricul-
ture. The total rural population in the area served by The Hydro-Electric
Power Commission of Ontario, or in adjacent areas within transmission dis-
tance of the Commission's power supply is approximately 1,100,000.
During the past year the mileage of rural line extensions approved for
construction in rural power districts in Ontario was 2,364. In all, 13,235
consumers were added. The aggregate load supplied to all rural Hydro
consumers in the Province amounted to 61,634 horsepower, an increase of
15.5 per cent over 1938.
Census data indicate that there are approximately 200,000 farms in
Ontario, varying from one acre to six hundred acres or larger. It would be
erroneous, however, to conclude that hydro-electric service will eventually
extend to such a number of farms. Approximately ten per cent of these
are very small, and service to them, if available, is supplied by the Commis-
sion under rates applicable to non-farm classes. There are also large numbers
of farms jointly owned and tenanted, some having no residential buildings
on them, and there are also a large number situated in remote districts out
of reach of Hydro lines and stations.
During the period that the regulations respecting service to rural con-
sumers required a minimum of three farm contracts per mile of primary line
the Commission made surveys in various parts of the Province and estimated
that approximately 75,000 standard or large farms would comprise the
42
THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF
No. 26
probable ultimate total of farms that could be served on this basis. Since
that time new regulations have been made permitting service on the basis
of two farms per mile, which necessarily has increased the number of addi-
tional farms that may be served.
For the next year it is anticipated that the miles of primary line con-
structed will approximate the number constructed during the past few years.
As the lines extend into the more remote districts, however, the average
number of farms that can be served per mile of line and the number of
farms remaining to be served will become smaller, and therefore the mileage
of rural lines constructed each year will decrease.
There are 184 operating rural power districts, and power is delivered to
approximately 113,000 rural consumers, comprising farms and dwellings in
various groups. The consumers are situated in 419 townships and 111 police
villages, and are served over a network of rural primary lines which aggregate
18,166 miles. In addition to the 419 townships served by rural power dis-
tricts, 10 townships are served jointly by rural power districts and voted
areas.
Recent estimates of the major electrical appliances used in rural power
districts are set out in the following table:

Standard Number of Consumers per Mile
Effective May 1, 1938, the Commission received authority by Order-in-
Council to construct rural primary lines on a basis of two farms per mile
under existing rates. This new basis does not include service to summer
cottages, which remains on the previous basis of three farms per mile. The
standard number of consumers required per mile varies according to the
class of service rendered. For this purpose a unit rating is allocated to each
class of consumer. A total of ten units per mile made up by various classes
of consumers is required before construction work is undertaken.
The following table indicates the number of units for each class of
service :

Maximum Consumption Charge
The Commission has found that the maximum economic limit of the
first domestic use throughout the rural power districts of the Province is
6 cents per kilowatt-hour. In all rural power districts, the first consumption
rate is fixed at a maximum of 6 cents per kilowatt-hour. The second rate
has a maximum of 2 cents per kilowatt-hour which applies to all districts.
Low Third Consumption Rate for Long-Hour Users
In 1934 the Commission made available for rural consumers a special
energy rate for long-hour users of power. This low rate particularly
affects under-earth heating (hot-beds) and heating of water. Where
the extra use of energy may be obtained from the present equipment, a third
follow-up rate per kilowatt-hour of 0.75 cents gross is given in all districts.
The first rate remains unchanged, except that as pointed out above it is
subject to a maximum of 6 cents per kilowatt-hour, and the kilowatt-hours
to be charged at the first rate remain unchanged. The number of kilowatt-
hours to be charged at the second rate varies both with the class of service
and the first kilowatt-hour rate. At the head of the table of rural rates at
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION

first rate.

*It may be observed that the number of consumers reported here does not agree with those
shown in other sections of the Annual Report of the Commission. This is due to the fact that
the figures given here represent consumers actually billed, whereas elsewhere in the Report the
tables show the number of contracts executed to the end of the fiscal year. In many cases
service is not given until the following year.
Rural Loans
Under The Rural Power District Loans Act, 1930, authority was given
to The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario to finance the installa-
tion of wiring and the purchase of specified electrical equipment by rural
farm consumers.
To October 31, 1939, 2,093 applications have been received and of these
1,525 loans have been completed. As all applications for loans are governed
by regulations made subject to the provisions of the Act it will be seen from
the above that quite a number fail to meet the requirements of these regula-
tions.
To October 31, 1939, 595 loans had been repaid in full either through the
maturing of the loan or because of the improved financial position of the
borrower.
During the fiscal year ending October 31, 1939, there were received 356
applications which with the 41 carried over from the previous year were
disposed of as follows: —

According to load
According to load
Class 1 : Hamlet Service — Includes service to consumers (other than farm and power users)
in hamlets, where four or more consumers are served from one transformer. Service is given
under two sub-classes as follows:
Class 1-B: Service to residences or stores, including use of portable appliances, and
permanently installed appliances not exceeding 1,320 watts.
Class 1-C: Service to residences or stores with electric range or ordinary permanently
installed appliances greater than 1,320 watts. Where a combination of residence and
store can be supplied from one service, the combination is billed as a single Class 1-C
consumer. Special or unusual loads will be treated specially.
Class 2- A: House Lighting — Includes service to all consumers other than farm and power
users that cannot be grouped as in Class 1.
Class 2-B: Farm Service, Small — Includes service for lighting of farm buildings, power for
miscellaneous small equipment and power for single-phase motors not exceeding 2 horsepower
and electric range if motors and range are not used simultaneously, on a farm of fifty acres or less.
Class 3: Farm Service, Light — Includes service for lighting of farm buildings, power
for miscellaneous small equipment and power for single-phase motors not exceeding
3 horsepower and electric range if motors and range are not used simultaneously.
Class 4: Farm Service, Medium Single-Phase — Includes service for lighting of farm buildings,
power for miscellaneous small equipment, and power for single-phase motors up to 5-horsepower
demand and electric range if motors and range are not used simultaneously.
Class 5 : Farm Service, Medium 3-Phase — Includes service for lighting of farm buildings,
power for miscellaneous small equipment and power for 3-phase motors up to 5-horsepower
demand and electric range if motors and range are not used simultaneously.
Class 6: Farm Service, Heavy — Includes service for lighting of farm buildings, power for
miscellaneous small equipment and power for motors up to 5-horsepower demand and an electric
range, or 10-horsepower demand without an electric range. Single- or three-phase service will
be given at the discretion of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario.
Class 7: Farm Service, Special — Includes service for lighting of farm buildings, power for
miscellaneous small equipment, power for 3-phase motors from 10- to 20-horsepower demand
and electric range. Single- or three-phase service will be given at the discretion of The Hydro-
Electric Power Commission of Ontario.
Note: Classes 2B to 7B are designed primarily to cover the service requirements of farmers.
Consumers other than farmers who require a more comprehensive service with greater demand
than is provided for in classes IB, 1C and 2A may obtain this service upon payment of the speci-
fied service charge listed in the table of rates.
Note: Class 2B is the service usually supplied to farms of fifty acres or less and Class 3 is
the service usually supplied to larger farms. More than 90 per cent of new contracts for farm
service are in one or other of these classes.

1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 59
SECTION IV
SALES PROMOTION
DURING the first two decades of its existence, the Hydro enterprise ex-
perienced a continuous and rapid growth. This growth was influenced by a
succession of stimulating causes, culminating in the economic boom of the
late twenties. Except for one or two circumstances, however, the remarakble
growth of Hydro service during these decades was no isolated phenomenon.
Over the world, in industry and in the home, electricity was becoming recog-
nized as the most efficient servant of mankind. But to this natural advantage
of electricity the publicly-owned Hydro enterprise, assisted by low-cost
hydro-electric power, added the attractive feature of low rates which, being
based upon service at cost, were inherently promotional in form. As a
result, Ontario has always been among the leaders in the per capita use of
electricity.
The chief problem of the Commission during the first twenty years of
its existence was that of providing sufficient power to meet the ever-pressing
demand. The product which Hydro had to deliver virtually sold itself and,
it will be recalled, during the later years of the last war, restrictions had to
be imposed upon the consumption of electricity. The economic depression
ended this period of rapid growth, and since 1930 the Commission has had
ample supplies of power to meet anticipated load growth.
In recent years, therefore, the Commission has been able to urge upon
the municipalities and the citizens of Ontario the adoption of a more aggressive
sales policy which, by inducing a fuller use of Hydro service, would result in
further raising the already relatively high standard of living in Ontario. In
accordance with this policy, the Commission during 1939 enlarged its sales
promotional activities, and in connection therewith organized a new Sales
Promotion department.
Plans formulated in connection with sales promotion efforts provided for
an organization which would be able to work directly in co-operation with the
municipal Hydro systems and other sections of the electrical industry, and
for a reasonably comprehensive advertising programme. During the fiscal
year the department operated under a budget approved by the Commission
in November, 1938, and the amount expended was well within the amount
allocated.
The results of the first year's work have, it is believed, been satisfactory,
and while it is difficult, and in many cases impossible, to evaluate with any
60 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
degree of statistical accuracy the results of the work undertaken, it may be
stated that quite definite value was received for the expenditures made.
Moreover, it must be remembered that the benefits achieved in one year to
a very large extent repeat themselves during the following years.
Advertising
The Commission's advertising programme was divided into four principal
sections: institutional, domestic, rural, and commercial and industrial.
Coupled with the institutional advertising programme was a Radio
programme which was broadcast for thirteen weeks, during the period from
February to April. The Commission has evidence that the programme was
well received, and had a direct benefit in building up public consciousness of
the value of electrical service. The remainder of the institutional programme
was devoted to advertising carried in a group of financial and executive
magazines, and there are indications that this advertising did much to foster
a better understanding of Hydro, and a more friendly feeling towards it.
The domestic advertising programme was mainly concentrated in the
daily newspapers of the Province. It was designed to support the efforts of
municipal utilities in connection with a series of electric demonstration weeks
which were held in the spring and early summer seasons. Although it is
difficult to evaluate the benefits of this advertising, it is known that during
the course of the year there was in Ontario a substantial increase in purchases
of electrical household equipment as compared with previous years.
One of the most effective and worth-while advertising campaigns under-
taken during the year was that carried in farm papers. Rural power district
superintendents and electrical manufacturers indicate that this programme
was most beneficial, and was responsible for a large increase in electrical
farm applications.
Commercial and industrial advertising, carried in trade and business
magazines, was directed mainly at the retail stores of the Province, and dealt
principally with the question of better lighting. This advertising, which is
relatively low in cost, supported the field operations in commercial lighting,
and was quite helpful.
Some idea of the coverage of the advertising programme may be gained
by multiplying the circulation of the publications used by the number of
advertisements. Adding to this total, about 600,000 listeners to the radio
programmes, it is estimated that about 9,400,000 "messages" were conveyed
to the public of Ontario during the year.
Bulletins Published
Coupled with the space advertising, a number of booklets for the general
use of the municipal Hydro utilities and rural power districts were issued.
Some of these booklets, dealing with various applications of the use of electric-
ity, were for distribution to the consumer. Others were for the purpose of
stimulating the individual Hydro utility to carry out greater promotional
effort in its local area.
The chief booklets issued were: a 20-page booklet, "Hydro 1939 Range
Campaign", designed to stimulate municipal effort and to provide advertising
material for use by Hydro utilities; a 20-page booklet, "Electric Demonstra-
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION

tion Week", issued to advise municipal Hydro systems of this campaign and
provide information for successful operation; a 22-page booklet, ' 'Hydro
Water Heater Manual", designed to stimulate municipal effort on water
heaters and to provide advertising material for use in this connection; a 20-
page booklet, "39 Steps To Better Business", issued to promote better light-
ing for commercial use; and "Hydro On The Farm", a 14-page booklet to
encourage the use of Hydro service by the rural consumer.
Smaller bulletins were issued to stimulate sales effort by industry in the
rural field and to provide advertising material in connection with Hydro
lamp sales promotion. In addition, a number of leaflets on ranges, water
heaters and appliances were published and distributed by the local Hydro
utilities with lighting bills or in other ways.
Domestic Promotion
During the year, sales promotion field men have worked actively in
nearly all of the Hydro municipalities in the Niagara, Georgian Bay and
Eastern Ontario systems. Each municipal utility was encouraged, with
considerable success, to carry out increased promotion of its domestic load.
At the end of the fiscal year 1938, only 124 Hydro utilities were active in the
promotion of electric range load. Of this number 88 were providing free
range service wiring, and 36 were providing such wiring in part. At the end
of the 1939 fiscal year, 180 Hydro utilities (an increase of 56) were providing
such service, 115 of them giving completely free range service wiring, and the
other 65 giving it in part. In addition, a large number of the municipal
utilities have undertaken to finance electric ranges on an equitable basis, not
only through their own Hydro shops, but also for the dealers in the community.
In so far as the range campaign is concerned, the estimated number of
electric ranges installed in Ontario during the year is some twenty per cent
greater than during the previous year.
Many of the municipal utilities are also assisting the local electrical in-
dustry by co-operating in advertising programmes, and by joining with the
dealers in endeavouring to build up the domestic appliance load. As a result
of the domestic promotion work, it is estimated that domestic consumption
of the municipal Hydro systems has increased by some 6,500,000 kilowatt-
hours, or more during the year, over and above the normally expected load
growth without additional promotion work.
Rural Promotion
In addition to the advertising programme carried out for the benefit of
the rural sections, direct field promotion work was successfully carried for-
ward by means of the Rural Travel Shop. This Travel Shop consisted of a
large demonstration trailer completely equipped with electrical appliances.
It visited most of the rural power districts, and gave demonstrations at many
of the Fall fairs, covering 3,460 miles and visiting 65 towns. At 114 demon-
strations and cooking schools there was an aggregate attendance of more than
27,000 people. Nearly 60,000 visitors at Fall fairs inspected the Rural
Travel Shop and much enthusiasm was evoked by the displays and demon-
strations.
It is estimated that the operation of the Travel Shop increased rural
consumption of electrical energy by some 1,000,000 kilowatt-hours. A
further indication of its value is that a greater number of ranges than in any
previous years were financed by the Commission on the farms of Ontario.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 63
Commercial and Industrial Promotion
Previous to the formation of this department, commercial lighting pro-
motion had been started throughout the Province. During the year, this
work was enlarged. Six lighting engineers, working on behalf of the municipal
Hydro systems, made lighting surveys in individual businesses, and presented
reports which have largely been acted upon. About 250 retail stores com-
prised about 41 per cent of the recommendations made, and 182 schools an
added 30 per cent. This work has resulted in a worth-while increase in lighting
load and in kilowatt-hour consumption. The estimated increased annual
consumption by commercial lighting consumers aggregates about 8,500,000
kilowatt-hours.
Comparatively little work was carried out in the early months of the year
in connection with industrial plants, but since the commencement of the War,
every effort has been directed toward serving industry, and field work pro-
moting more efficient lighting in manufacturing plants is being zealously
carried forward. Undoubtedly, this effort will contribute towards increased
production for War service.
A small group of industrial engineers working in the department carried
out surveys of various plants. Reports were submitted to these plants,
recommending changes which will improve their operating conditions and
incidentally increase their loads.
During 1940, an effort will be made to increase the applications of elec-
tricity to industrial operations, and to maintain the use of electricity at the
most economical and effective level. Special attention will be paid to those
plants manufacturing war equipment.
Sales of Lamps and Equipment
The sale of miscellaneous supplies and equipment including water heater
equipment to the municipal Hydro systems has amounted during the course
of the year, to a total of $233,776. In addition to these sales of miscellaneous
equipment, the distribution of Hydro lamps to the municipal systems has
substantially increased. In 1939, there were a total of 912,147 lamp units
handled, as compared with 693,832 in 1938 — an increase of 32 per cent.
General Conclusions
From information gathered from all sections of the electrical industry, it
is believed that the results obtained by the sales promotion activities of the
Commission during 1939 were of substantial value. The efforts put forth in
1939 and the training and organization of the Sales Promotion staff will have
a cumulative beneficial effect upon future operations.
In the course of this survey some estimates of the added kilowatt-hour
consumption attributable to the sales promotion efforts have been given.
The grand total of this increased annual consumption is about 16,900,000
kilowatt-hours, representing a continuing annual increase in revenue to the
municipal Hydro systems of some $260,000.
During the coming year the sales promotion efforts of the Commission
will be modified and co-ordinated with other activities in order to ensure that
Hydro service gives the maximum possible help to the war efforts of Ontario,
particularly in the efficient manufacture of war supplies and in maintaining
agricultural production.

SECTION V
HYDRAULIC ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION
DURING 1939 increasing power demands made it necessary to devote
time and attention on all systems to hydraulic engineering studies and
estimates of costs, relating mainly to future construction of additional gener-
ating capacity.
In active construction the Hydraulic department was concerned chiefly
with the extension to the Ear Falls generating station by the installation of
the third unit. Attention was also given to the design and installation of
various protective works intended to further safeguard the Commission's
power plants.
NIAGARA SYSTEM
At the present time the DeCew Falls development is the chief source of
supply of power to the 66%-cycle division of the Niagara system. Growth in
load on this division made it necessary to provide additional pondage at
DeCew Falls, which was done by raising the normal high-water level in the
reservoirs from elevation 554.5 to elevation 555.5. To provide sufficient
freeboard for this higher water level, it was decided to raise portions of the
earth dykes and to build other temporary works. This work is proceeding.
A timber bridge, crossing a small channel in the reservoir, was dismantled
and replaced by an earth and rock fill.
Further studies and cost estimates were made to determine the feasibility
of rebuilding the present DeCew Falls plant to operate as a peak-load plant
on the Niagara 25-cycle system.
At the Queenston development certain betterments were carried out.
Changes were made to the sump pumps and discharge lines in the power
house. Various protective works were carried out above and at either end
of the power house to safeguard the plant from damage from falling rocks.
At the Ontario Power plant two service-unit generators were changed
over from turbine drive to motor drive. The hydraulic turbines which had
previously driven these generators were removed and their appurtenant
penstocks and draft tubes were blocked off.

GEORGIAN BAY SYSTEM
At Eugenia generating station the No. 2 surge-tank housing, which had
been destroyed by fire, was replaced by one of fire-resistant design.
The Ragged Rapids development, situated below Bala on the Musquash
river, was in operation by November 1938, and all work in hand was com-
pleted during the subsequent year. A description of the plant was given in
the last annual report.
The continued load growth in the Georgian Bay system, which following
the completion of the Ragged Rapids generating station reached 40,000 horse-
power in 1939, made it desirable to continue studies and field surveys and to
make preliminary designs and cost estimates respecting other power sites
available in the district.

EASTERN ONTARIO SYSTEM
Hydraulic studies, preliminary designs and cost estimates were continued
covering possible power developments and storage basins on the Madawaska
river.
At Fenelon Falls, hydraulic tests were carried out, both at the Commis-
sion's plant and at the plant owned by the municipality.
THUNDER BAY SYSTEM
Increased loads on the Thunder Bay system necessitated studies for
future power resources. These studies embraced plans for possible new
developments on the Nipigon river upstream from the present generating
stations, using present flows, and also plans for the efficient utilization of
flows derived from possible diversion of Ogoki river water down the Nipigon
river.
At the Alexander generating station the log-slide was repaired and lined
with steel plate.
NORTHERN ONTARIO PROPERTIES
Abitibi District
Field surveys were made on the French and Mississagi rivers to provide
data for preliminary designs and cost estimates in connection with studies of
new power sources in the Abitibi district.
Patricia-St. Joseph District
The continued growth of mining loads in the Patricia and St. Joseph
districts required that further generating capacity be provided. Careful
studies revealed the fact that the linking up of these two districts would
effect operating economies and improvements in regulation and would also
safeguard essential power supplies in the event of breakdown to the generating
plants, either at Ear Falls or Rat Rapids. Furthermore, interconnection
would enable the growing power demand of both districts to be met initially
by the enlargement of the Ear Falls development in the Patricia district.
The 48-mile transmission line from Ear Falls to the Uchi line was there-
fore extended 113 miles to Crow River where it is now linked to the trans-
mission line to the Pickle Lake area. This permits the two plants to be oper-
ated in parallel as a co-ordinated system with better frequency regulation at
Rat Rapids provided by the stabilizing effect of the larger Ear Falls plant.
The Ear Falls development on the English river is situated at the outlet
of Lac Seul in the district of Patricia. The English river is one of the large
tributaries of the Winnipeg river on which a number of power developments
serving Winnipeg and other parts of the province of Manitoba have been
constructed. In 1928-1929 a conservation dam was built at the outlet of

Lac Seul, the governments of the Dominion and of the Province of Ontario
co-operating. The dam regulates the outflow of the lake for the benefit of
present and future developments on the English and Winnipeg rivers. It
creates a reservoir having a storage capacity of 4,500,000 acre-feet, which is
sufficient to effect almost complete regulation of the outflow. The drainage
area above the dam covers about 10,200 square miles.
The design of the dam provided for future power development, but the
opening up of nearby mining properties during the period of construction
justified the immediate provision of a power plant at the site. The initial
development undertaken early in 1929 consisted of a small plant with an
installation of a single unit of 5,000 horsepower under a head of 36 feet. The
unit was placed in service on Christmas day, 1929. A second similar unit
was installed in 1937, the turbines in both cases being of the fixed-blade
propeller type.
Unit No. 3 has a vertical turbine rated at 7,500 horsepower at 36 feet of
head, 150 r.p.m., with an automatically adjustable blade runner of the Kaplan
type. The servomotor which controls the adjustable blades of the turbine
runner is built into the turbine shaft and an oil-pressure governor controls
the unit. This unit is the second of the Kaplan type to be installed in the
Commission's plants. The high efficiencies given by the Kaplan runner over
a wide range in load and discharge will enable the Ear Falls plant to make the
most economical use of storage water.
The vertical generator is direct connected to the turbine, and is rated at
6,000 kv-a., 90 per cent power- factor, 6,600 volts, 150 r.p.m., 60 cycles, and
has a 75-kw. main exciter and a 5-kw. pilot exciter direct connected thereto.
The turbine settings for the three units installed to date are each of rein-
forced concrete with spiral type scroll case, and are about 170 feet downstream
from the regulating dam. Water is conveyed from the intakes, which are
located in power sluices in the regulating dam, through penstocks to the scroll
cases. The penstocks for units Nos. 1 and 2 are wood stave, and for unit
No. 3 reinforced concrete nearly square in cross-section.
Units Nos. 1 and 2 are constructed with short conical draft tubes of
plate steel reinforced with a concrete envelope. Unit No. 3 is provided with
a concrete elbow type draft tube. When completed, the plant will contain
four units having a total capacity of 25,000 horsepower under a head of 36
feet.
Long Lac Diversion
The Long Lac diversion project was described in the last annual report.
Work on the canal was continued and completed during the year. The canal
was designed and constructed for the transportation of pulpwood and to
divert ultimately an annual average flow of about 1,100 cubic feet per second
southerly to lake Superior. It was placed in operation in July 1939. Up
to the present time the project has been used solely for the transportation of
pulpwood from the Kenogami watershed to lake Superior.

HYDRAULIC INVESTIGATIONS
The routine work of the Hydraulic department included the following
activities. Collection and compilation of hydrometric data. Rating of
hydraulic turbines and sluiceways to enable the compilation of proper water
records at the power houses, and supervision of the operation of storage
basins. Investigations were carried on at certain generating stations and
dams to ensure proper hydraulic operating conditions. Engineering work was
continued in connection with the maintenance of the hydraulic plants on the
various systems, and numerous sundry items having to do with land, contracts
and agreements were handled.
At the request of the municipality of Bracebridge, turbine efficiency tests
were carried out at one of the town's hydro-electric plants.

SECTION VI
ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION
CONSTRUCTION work during the past year was most active in the
mining districts of northern Ontario. In the co-operative systems new
construction work and modifications to meet changing conditions due to load
growth proceeded normally.
Go-operative Systems
An extensive investigation of conditions in the Toronto suburban area
resulted in the approval of the construction of Toronto Fairbank transformer
station directly north of the city near Dufferin street for the supply of power
to Weston, Etobicoke township, York township, North York township, Forest
Hill Village and various municipalities along Yonge street between Toronto
and Lake Simcoe. The station will have an initial capacity of 50,000-kv-a,
comprising two transformer units.
A new 6,000-kv-a transformer station with voltage-regulating equipment
is being installed near Simcoe to improve the power supply to the munici-
palities south of Brant transformer station. A 67, 500-kv-a transformer
station at the Ontario Paper Company plant in Thorold, 15,000-kv-a addi-
tional capacity at Toronto-Bridgman transformer station and 3,750-kv-a
additional capacity at St. Thomas transformer station are being installed.
Twenty-three new distributing stations were installed or under construc-
tion during the year and the transformer capacity of twenty-five other dis-
tributing stations has been increased.
Over thirty-one miles of new transmission lines were placed in service
and many revisions and improvements to existing lines were made. Distri-
bution circuits have been extended about 2,650 miles for the supply of power
to rural customers of the co-operative systems.
Northern Ontario Properties
An additional 6,000-kv-a generator is being installed at Ear Falls generat-
ing station for the supply of power to the Patricia and St. Joseph districts,
which were combined during the year. A 44,000-volt tie line was built be-

tween the two districts and a new 3,750-kv-a transformer station was installed
at Crow River to effect the tie. A new 15,000-kv-a transformer station is
being installed at Timmins and a 1,000-kv-a transformer station was built at
Shining Tree. Five new distributing stations were installed in the mining
districts and the capacity of another was increased. Metering equipment was
installed for the measurement of power supply to seven new mining companies
and to take care of the increased power demand of four existing mining cus-
tomers. A total of 306 miles of transmission lines were erected and also 22
miles of distribution circuits for the supply of power to rural customers.
Planning for the Future
Expansion and growth of the various systems during recent years has
introduced complex technical problems requiring advance planning and the
maximum co-operation that can be secured between the various branches of
the Electrical Engineering department and other departments. To ensure
this co-ordination of effort, a Planning section has been established in con-
nection with the Electrical Engineering department.
GENERATOR, TRANSFORMER AND DISTRIBUTION STATIONS
NIAGARA SYSTEM
Niagara District — A transformer station is being installed on the
property of the Ontario Paper Company to supply power for the industrial
load of this company, Beaverwood Fibre Company and the customers on
the 12,000-volt feeders to Port Robinson. A bank of three new 22,500-kv-a
transformers with spare unit, metal-clad low- voltage equipment and 110,000-
volt switching equipment, were purchased and construction work is under
way. The station will be in service later in the year.
Distributing stations known as Fonthill, Virgil and Pelham Road, were
installed for the supply of power to Fonthill and portions of the Welland,
Niagara and Grantham rural power districts. A bank of three new 150-kv-a
transformers was purchased for Fonthill, a three-phase, 300-kv-a transformer
was purchased for Virgil and a bank of three 75-kv-a units was obtained
from system reserve for Pelham Road. The three stations are now in service.
Hamilton and Dundas District — At Dundas transformer station the
installation of two 4,000-kv-a auto-transformers referred to in last year's
report was completed and placed in service. The distributing stations on the
Caledonia and Hagersville circuits were changed at the same time to operate
at 26,400 volts.
Aldershot and Burlington Beach distributing stations were installed and
placed in service for the supply of power to Waterdown rural power district

Approximately five miles of new 22, 000- volt, wood-pole transmission
line was built from Crow River transformer station to provide double line
service to mining customers.
TELEPHONE LINES— ALL SYSTEMS
In the Niagara system, a portion of the Dundas to Brant telephone line,
8.06 miles; portions of the St. Mary's to London line, 8 miles; and portions of
the Brant to Woodstock line, 6.65 miles in length, were rebuilt. Between
Allanburg and Dundas transformer station, 5.2 miles of four circuits of the
"A" line, and 5.2 miles of single-circuit of the "AA" line were removed.
These portions were replaced by a new portion, 5.7 miles in length, of four
circuits, constructed on new poles located to the south of the former "A"
line. Also, a portion of the Kent to Essex telephone line, including a tap to
Tilbury, 8.5 miles in length, was rebuilt. A portion of the telephone line
between York transformer station and Toronto Strachan transformer station,
approximately 1.6 miles, was relocated due to highway diversions. A f-mile
extension of the telephone service between the rural and municipal offices in
the town of Harrow was installed. In the Toronto district, 4.55 miles of
telephone cables were replaced. Loading coils were installed between
Toronto Strachan transformer station and the administration building, and
between the administration building and Toronto Bridgman transformer
station.
In the Georgian Bay system, an additional telephone circuit was erected
between Fergusonvale junction and Bradford junction, and the existing No. 9
iron circuit was retransposed.
In the Eastern Ontario system, 58.79 miles of No. 9 iron telephone con-
ductor were replaced with No. 6 aluminum cable steel-reinforced between
Brockville junction and Cornwall distributing station.
In the Thunder Bay system, new telephone equipment was installed to
provide improved facilities for the district patrolmen, and 7 miles of telephone
circuit was erected between Geraldton distributing station and Bankfield
junction on existing 44,000-volt transmission line poles.
In northern Ontario, a radio link was established between Frederick-
house Dam and Timmins. At Coniston, 1.48 miles of single-circuit telephone
line was constructed to provide communication between the generating
station and the Bell Telephone company connection at Coniston.

SECTION VII
TESTING— RESEARCH- INSPECTION
PRODUCTION AND SERVICE
THE work of the Laboratories of the Commission has been described in
detail in previous Annual Reports. Its chief branches comprise: testing,
inspection and checking material and equipment; research work along prac-
tical lines through research sub-committees to develop new ideas, to improve
characteristics of materials and equipment and to reduce costs; examination
and testing of devices and fittings to ensure public safety, particularly against
fire and shock, the issuance of Approval certificates for their sale, and the
inspection of electrical installations in industrial, commercial and residential
premises. Under the supervision of the head of the department also are oper-
ated a photographic and blue-printing department and a production and
service department, with machine shop, carpenter shop and garage. The
Commission maintains a fleet of more than 300 trucks, chiefly in connection
with its operating and rural service divisions. These trucks are regularly
and systematically inspected and repaired.
On the following pages are given brief references to the more important
items of routine and special research work carried out and a short summary
of other work under the care of the Laboratories. It will be appreciated that
no adequate report of the work of the Laboratories can be given in the limited
space available in the Commission's Annual Report.
TESTING AND RESEARCH LABORATORIES
Routine and General Testing
The Laboratories have carried out an unusually large amount of routine
testing and inspection on numerous devices, equipment and materials sub-
mitted. This work is done to assist municipal utilities and also to insure the
highest quality in material and workmanship in the Commission's purchases.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 91
SKIN EFFECT MEASUREMENTS
Measuring the skin effect factor on large electrical cables
Electrical and mechanical equipment is inspected at the manufacturers'
plants to insure that it has the desired characteristics and that materials and
fabrication are satisfactory. Other equipment or devices are given routine
tests at the Laboratories and these may lead to deeper investigations and
studies according to the proportion of rejections necessary.
Materials and Equipment Inspection
Transmission Line Materials
The usual inspection of transmission line materials handled by Strachan
Avenue stores was continued. This included clamps of various types, ground
rods, insulator pins and brackets, cross arms, general line hardware, wire and
cable. The copper wire, steel reinforced aluminum and galvanized steel cable
inspected amounted to 2,685 tons, an increase of 22 per cent over last year.
Electrical Equipment
Factory inspection covered one 6,000-kv-a generator, and 139 power
transformers of various ratings, having total capacity of 181,970-kv-a.
Distribution transformers to the number of 9,090 were inspected, also 10 oil
circuit breakers, total capacity 288,900-kv-a, 5,475 disconnecting switches of
various types, totalling 1,579,800-kv-a and about 330,000 line and bus in-
sulators. A large amount of metal-clad switchgear equipment was inspected
for municipal utilities and for a new pumping plant. Inspection also covered
eleven synchronous and induction type pump motors, with total rating of
7,900 horsepower.
92 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
In the Laboratories, routine tests were made on 5,280 linemen's rubber
gloves, 2,500 samples of insulating oil, more than 2,600 instrument and dis-
tribution transformers, 1,400 insulators and about 26,000 fuse links. A total
of 5,625 watt-hour meters were repaired and checked, and about 200 indicating
instruments were calibrated.
Mechanical Equipment
One 7,500 horsepower Kaplan type adjustable blade hydraulic turbine
was inspected at the manufacturer's plant. This is for installation at Ear
Falls to drive the 6,000-kv-a generator. In addition, a large number of mis-
cellaneous items of power plant equipment including sluice gates, rack struc-
tures and a gantry crane were inspected for the same development. Numerous
other items of equipment for use at various plants and stations also were
inspected.
Concrete
A resident concrete inspector was stationed at Ear Falls development
during construction work. His duties there were the testing of aggregates,
supervising manufacturing processes and generally checking the quality of
the concrete.
Field inspections of five structures in service were made for the purpose
of observing the condition of the concrete and noting the progress and extent
of any deterioration.
Paint
A total of 339 samples of paints, together with other protective coatings,
were tested for quality. A large number of petroleum products were analyzed
and tests were made on metals, alloys, concrete ingredients and miscellaneous
organic and inorganic materials for various uses.
Steel and Timber
A total of 525 tons of steel was inspected, about half of this being rein-
forcing steel. The number of pine and cedar poles inspected amounted to
about 10,000, nearly 20 per cent of which had to be rejected on account of
various defects.
Lamps and Lighting Equipment
The number of lamps tested at the factory, 78,700, and the quantity,
3,887, given life tests at the Laboratory, represent increases of twenty per
cent over last year. The lamps stamped at the factory reached a total of
740,700. Some special lamps also were tested. About forty candle-power-
distribution tests were made and sixteen foot-candle meters were calibrated.
Miscellaneous equipment checked and tested included safety glass, reflex
signals and automatic lighting devices. A large number of gloss measure-
ments were made on paints.

VIBRATION INVESTIGATION ON TRANSMISSION LINES
A new magnetic transfer device used with the oscillograph in recording amplitude and frequency
of conductor vibrations
Research
Research work is carried on by studies and investigations in both labora-
tory and field to determine the quality of materials which the Commission
proposes to use, to develop new equipment and methods of applying electrical
power, and to improve the existing equipment or methods wherever possible.
Vibration of Transmission Line Conductors
The problem of vibration in power line conductors was actively pursued,
and substantial progress was made.
In the field studies, new recording equipment, developed by a member of
the staff, proved of great value both in rating the performance of vibration
dampers and in investigating the intensity of stress at points of conductor
attachment. Further studies of the torsional damper were made and con-
clusive data were obtained showing that these dampers effectively suppress
vibration on both short and long span construction.
The investigation of the endurance characteristics of conductor materials
was continued, complete information being obtained on the fatigue limits and
other physical properties of three grades of galvanized steel ground wire.
Tests also were made to determine the effect of low atmospheric temperatures
on the impact resistance of these materials. A limited amount of work was
done towards investigating the endurance of steel wire in the stranded condi-
tion, and comparative tests were made on full size steel-reinforced aluminum
cables.
94 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Electrical Insulation
A large number of gradient tests were made on transformer and oil-
switch bushings in service ; the tests show that about three per cent of these
bushings have incipient faults. Their replacement before actual failure
occurred probably prevented many service interruptions. Very satisfactory
results were obtained in metallizing suspension insulators to prevent radio
interference. Pin digestion and the mechanism of cable failure were studied
with a certain amount of investigation.
Rural Applications of Electricity
The study and development of a new type of grain grinder were carried
on during the year to determine the possibility of adapting this type of grind-
ing to small farm units. This covered investigation of screens, knives,
speeds, power requirements and feed methods.
In co-operation with the Ontario Agricultural College at Guelph, electric
soil heating was again used to grow an experimental crop of cucumbers. The
method was modified so that a smaller number of plants produced a crop
equal to that of the previous year. Studies in the application of light to plant
growth were continued with typical varieties of plants.
Applications of Electronics
Proposed carrier equipment for communication along the power con-
ductors between Beauharnois and Chats Falls generating stations was studied
and field tests were made on the actual power line. The application of pro-
tective relaying to this carrier channel has also been investigated and discussed
in detail with the Beauharnois Light, Heat and Power Company at several
conferences.
Water Treatment
The corrosion in domestic electric hot water tanks is being investigated
using a number of tanks of different materials and set up under service con-
ditions in a location where the water is more than usually corrosive. The
results obtained up to the present show noticeable variation in the action of
the water on the different elements and tank walls. It is expected that this
investigation will determine the true cause and other characteristics of the
corrosion found in domestic tanks.
Electric Welding
Investigations were made toward standardizing welding materials and
the technique used on work for the Commission. The characteristics of weld
metal were studied and also the advantages of stress relieving. The welding
engineer has instructed manufacturers in proper welding technique in order
to insure the highest quality in the equipment.

Paint
Research studies have included suitable paints for under-water exposure
and several different types were tested. Analyses and comparative weather-
ing tests were made on thirteen different brands of house paint, five of which
have been in use by the Commission, and others were standard brands on the
market or special formulated paints. Several houses were painted for field
observation.
A large amount of work was done on a special glazed coating for both
interior and exterior finishes on walls and floors and for certain repair work.
Masonry Materials
Attention has been given to problems relating to concrete, brick, and
other materials used in masonry construction. A concerted effort was
made in both laboratory and field to find methods of producing concrete of
more durable quality.
Further investigations on repair methods for concrete were started in
order that the Commission's engineers may be reliably informed as to the best
method to use for various classes of work. A number of existing concrete
structures were examined, including eight structures which are not the prop-
erty of the Commission.

THE TESTING OF SAFETY GLASS
Left — Impact Tests, — the ball, shot bag and dart are dropped freely from specified heights on the
samples set in the frame. A sample, after test, is shown in position.
Right — Discoloration Tests, — samples are submitted to ultra violet rays for given periods. The
frame is rotated, and samples cooled by means of a fan.
The study of water movements through concrete has been continued in
an attempt to establish some relation between the compressive strength of
concrete and the loss in its chemical constituents as brought about by water
percolation.
An investigation of the deterioration of cement in storage was started
during the year.
Treatment of Wood Transmission Structures
The deterioration of wood poles and methods for their preservation have
received a large amount of attention. The work also has broadened to include
studies of other phases of pole life such as reduction in strength with service,
new methods of reinforcing poles, new types of poles, and the preparation of
specifications for purchase of poles and timber for transmission structures.
The butt treatment of poles using the sand creosote collar has been
applied extensively and the results of the treatment are being investigated.
With the completion of tests on a new split-cylinder pole-reinforcing and treat-
ing unit, installations have been made on about 710 poles, including both
direct reinforcing and ground-line splicing. Tests are being continued on the
strength of poles that have been in service for relatively long periods.
Petroleum Products
Special investigations have been carried out on petroleum products and
related materials. Tests were made on used lubricating oil at Queenston
generating station to determine the extent of deterioration with a view to

establishing proper procedure for refining a large quantity of this oil when it
becomes necessary. Generator oils have been studied and tested for film
strength and coefficient of friction. Comparative tests were made on auto-
mobile car filters, and the technique of testing filter paper was investigated.
Miscellaneous Research
Investigations were made to determine the merits of hot plates and the
characteristics of a thermal storage electric cooker, and also as part of the
study of some water heater and thermostat problems. Methods of joining
aluminum transmission conductors were studied with special attention to
materials for sealing contacts against oxidation. The reduction of high
ground resistances and the use of the earth-leakage relay switch also were
given consideration. A peak wattmeter was developed for checking maximum
demand on spot welders.
New Equipment
An abrasion tester was built and is now in use in testing insulated wire.
A reactor was purchased for the Approvals Laboratory to be used in
testing industrial control equipment at low power factor, and a device was
built for use in testing switches actuated by gas pressure.
Equipment was built for discoloration tests on safety glass in which
samples are submitted to ultra-violet rays.
The new portable oscillograph, ordered last year, was received and has
been used in a number of laboratory and field investigations.
A Ferris portable combined radio noise and field strength meter was pur-
chased for measurement of radio interference from power lines and also from
devices submitted for approval.

Specifications and Committee Work
Members of the staff attended meetings and conventions of the Canadian
Engineering Standards Association, National Research Council, American
Society for Testing Materials, American Concrete Institute, Association of
Municipal Electrical Utilities, Engineering Institute of Canada, Canadian
Electrical Association, American Institute of Electrical Engineers, National
Fire Protection Association, Radio Manufacturers Association and Ontario
Electrical Contractors Association.
APPROVALS LABORATORY
The number of applications for approval increased about ten per cent.
The increase was more marked in classes of wiring devices, industrial control
devices, and radio, sound and picture appliances. It was not a great increase
in the use of any one appliance but rather general development of new models.
The number of factory inspection reports was larger, and the quantity
of labels sold for cord, wire cable and conduit increased.
Inspection and Testing of Wire, Cable and Conduit
A total of 672 factory inspections of wiring materials was made and 1,298
inspection reports were issued to manufacturers. These figures are respec-
tively, 15 per cent and 11 per cent higher than those of the previous year.
The quantities of insulated wire, heat-resisting fixture wire, armoured cable
and non-metallic sheathed cable inspected showed large increases, 20 to 31
per cent. Also, larger amounts of Christmas tree wire and rigid steel conduit
were inspected.
The quantities of heater cord and flexible non-metallic tubing did not
show any increase and there was a noticeable reduction in flexible steel con-
duit.
PRODUCTION AND SERVICE DEPARTMENT
The operations of the machine shop, carpenter shop and garage continued
on a satisfactory basis. The volume of work done, though somewhat less
than in the previous year, was approximately equal to that of two years before.
The machine and carpenter shops completed a total of 1,721 orders, and
other departments were assisted in the development of new types of apparatus.
The garage was operated along lines similar to those followed in recent
years. The policy of regularly and systematically inspecting the Commis-
sion's fleet of 309 trucks was continued. Thirty-three trucks were completely
overhauled in the garage and 1,346 individual inspections were made in the
field. In addition, 186 orders for miscellaneous repairs were completed.
Fifty-six new trucks were purchased, 29 of which were replacements and
the remaining 27 were additions to the fleet. A new type of all-steel truck
body, specially designed for convenience in meter reading and installation of
rural services, was adopted as standard. This design provides adequate
facilities for carrying 16 watthour meters, materials and equipment, and re-
places the pick-up and panel bodies previously used for this purpose.

A new two-ton combination type trailer, equipped with electric brakes,
was developed for the dual purpose of hauling poles and carrying reels of
cable. It is so designed that the reels may easily be loaded directly from the
ground level without the use of other lifting equipment.
PHOTOGRAPHY, PHOTOSTAT AND BLUE PRINTING
There was a definite increase in the amount of work done in photography,
photostat and blue printing. A total of 779 photograph orders was completed,
about six per cent increase. The number of blue prints made was 93,227, an
increase of eleven per cent.
The photostat camera has been used to a much greater extent, the orders
completed, 550, show an increase of thirty-six per cent. The number of
positive prints was over fifteen per cent higher, and indicated an increasing
preference for this type instead of the negative print.
ELECTRICAL INSPECTION DEPARTMENT
This department handled the largest volume of work for any year since
it was organized, but the amount was only slightly more than in the previous
year.
Statistical
A total of 119,578 permits was issued, an increase of 1.6 per cent over
1938, and 208,388 inspections were made, an increase of 2.3 per cent.
Fires Attributed to Electricity
Among the fires investigated, after having been reported as caused
through electrical wiring or equipment, ten were traced to that source. These
were found due to loose ground clamps, loose connections at the meter, or
short-circuits in armoured cable, flexible cord or knob and tube wiring.
Possibly other fires had their origin in electrical circuits or equipment but the
evidence available to the Commission's inspectors did not entirely warrant
such a conclusion.
Electrocutions and Fatal Accidents
Seven persons lost their lives through coming into contact with electric
wiring or equipment under the jurisdiction of this department. Of these,
five were electrocuted in such positions as (a) holding a metal tray which had
cut through the insulation of a portable cable, (b) handling a portable lamp
while in a bathtub, (c) in contact with a power feeder within reach above a
roof, (d) in contact with the bumper of a car which was alive due to a defective
battery charger, and (e) while wiring a live control panel. One man died
from burns when an oil can caused a short circuit and exploded. Another
suffered a broken neck in a fall caused by shock while investigating supposed
trouble in an oil switch.
100 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Ground Tests
Ground tests, made in isolated communities and rural districts, reached
a total of 5,539.
Infractions of Regulations
Fifty-four persons and companies were prosecuted for various infractions
of the Rules and Regulations governing the installation and sale of electrical
equipment and material. This was a considerable reduction in prosecutions,
— thirty-two less than in the previous year.
The Canadian Electrical Code
Members of the Laboratory and Electrical Inspection staffs attended
several meetings and assisted in revising sections of the Code.
On Part I of the Code — Electrical Installations — nine meetings were
attended by the Commission's engineers in connection with the preparation
of material for the fourth edition of the Code. This material had been pre-
pared in draft form mainly in the preceding fiscal year but was reviewed for
revision and acceptance by the various committees of the Canadian Engineer-
ing Standards Association. The Code was issued late in the year.
On Part II of the Code — Approval Specifications for Electrical Equip-
ment. — Nineteen meetings of different committees and subcommittees were
held. These were attended by several of the Commission's engineers. Two
specifications, on ' 'Knife Switches" and ' 'Flexible Steel Conduit", were com-
pleted and printed by the Canadian Engineering Standards Association. Six
other specifications were advanced to the preliminary draft stage, one to
C.E.S.A. draft and four to letter ballot.
With the reorganization of the Canadian Electrical Code Committee,
the Panel on Specifications became the Committee on Part II of the C.E.
Code, with the Approvals engineer as chairman. Subcommittees were ap-
pointed, each under the chairmanship of a member of the Part II Committee,
and with secretaries appointed from the Laboratory staff. Under this new
arrangement, much of the work of preparing the specifications and guiding
them through the various stages to completion devolves upon the Approvals
Laboratory. As the above programme of the year's work shows, this Com-
mittee and its subcommittees have been quite active.

SECTION IX
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Relating to
Properties Operated by The Hydro -Electric Power Commission in the
Niagara, Georgian Bay, Eastern Ontario and Thunder Bay
Systems on Behalf of Municipalities
and to
Northern Ontario Properties Held and Operated by the Commission
in Trust for the Province of Ontario, and
The Hamilton Street Railway Company — A Subsidiary of
Niagara System
IN this section of the Report financial statements relating to the activities
of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission, segregated into certain distinct
divisions, are presented. The first division relates to those activities on behalf
of the co-operative municipalities, which are partners in the main ' 'Hydro"
undertaking comprising the Niagara, Georgian Bay, Eastern Ontario and
Thunder Bay systems and certain minor properties. The second relates to
the administration of the Northern Ontario Properties which are held and
operated by the Commission in trust for the Province of Ontario. The third
relates to The Hamilton Street Railway Company, a subsidiary of the Niagara
system.
Co-operative Systems
In the Foreword to this Report a brief reference is made to the basic
principle governing the operations of the "Hydro" undertaking in supplying
electrical service at cost, and to the wholesale and retail aspects of the work.
A description is also given of the several systems into which the partner muni-
cipalities are co-ordinated for securing common action with respect to power
supplies, through the medium of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
which, under The Power Commission Act, functions as their Trustee.
Although for the purpose of financial administration the various systems
are separate units, there is a similarity of procedure with respect to their
operation which enables certain financial statements, as for example the
various reserves, to be co-ordinated and presented in summary tables.
104 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
The first set of tables in Section IX gives collective results for the co-
operative activities related to the four systems and minor associated proper-
ties. These tables include a balance sheet; a statement of operation and
cost distribution as detailed in the "cost of power" tables referred to below;
schedules respecting fixed assets, capital expenditures and grants — rural
power districts, power accounts receivable, funded debt issued or as-
sumed, renewals reserves, contingencies and obsolescence reserves,
stabilization of rates reserves, sinking fund reserves and the account
with the Provincial Treasurer of the Province of Ontario.
The tables which follow these general financial statements relate more
particularly to the individual municipality's aspects of the wholesale activities
of the Commission and for each system show the cost of power to the in-
dividual municipal utilities, the credit or debit adjustment that is made at
the end of the fiscal year, and the sinking fund equity that has been acquired
by the individual municipality. There is also included for each system a
rural operating statement.
The charges for power supplied by the Commission to the various muni-
cipalities vary with the amounts of power used, the distances from the sources
of supply and other factors. The entire capital cost of the various power
developments and transmission systems is annually allocated to the connected
municipalities and other wholesale power consumers, according to the relative
use made of the lines and equipment. Each municipality assumes responsi-
bility for that portion of property employed in providing and transmitting
power for its use, together with such expenses — including the cost of pur-
chased power if any — as are incidental to the provision and delivery of its
wholesale power. The annual expenses and the appropriations for reserves
are provided out of revenues collected in respect of such power, through the
medium of power bills rendered by the Commission. The municipalities are
billed at an estimated interim rate each month during the year and credit or
debit adjustment is made at the end of the year,* when the Commission's
books are closed and the actual cost payable by each municipality for power
taken has been determined.
Included in the municipality's remittance to the Commission for the
wholesale cost of power — besides such current expenses as those for, operation
and maintenance of plant, for administration, and for interest on capital — are
sums required to build up reserves for sinking fund, for renewals, for contin-
gencies and obsolescence, and for stabilization of rates. The first-mentioned
reserve, namely, sinking fund, is being created on a 40-year basis for the
purpose of liquidating capital liabilities. The other reserves are, respectively,
being created to provide funds for the replacing or rebuilding of plant as it
wears out, to enable the undertaking to replace existing equipment with
improved equipment as it becomes available through advances in science and
invention, and to meet unforeseen expenses which from time to time may
arise.
*The financial year for the Commission ends on October 31. The financial year for the
municipal electric utilities, however, ends on December 31, and the municipal accounts are made
up to this date, and so recorded in Section X.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 105
The ultimate source of all revenue to meet costs — whether for the larger
operations of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission or for the smaller local
operations of the municipalities — is, of course, the consumer. Out of the
total revenue collected by each municipal utility from its consumers for service
supplied, only an amount sufficient to pay the wholesale cost of power supplied
by the Commission as outlined above is remitted to the Commission; the
balance of municipal electrical revenue is retained to pay for the expense in-
curred by the local utility in distributing the electrical energy to its consumers.
Tabular Data
The following comments relate to the tabular data presented:
Balance Sheet. — The first tabular statement given in Section IX
is a balance sheet showing the assets, and the liabilities of the several
co-operative systems.
Statement of Operation and Cost Distributions. — This state-
ment is a summary of operating expenses and fixed charges as shown
in the "cost of power" tables relating to the individual systems as re-
ferred to more particularly below.
Fixed Assets. — Details are given concerning the various fixed
assets of each system and of the miscellaneous properties, whilst similar
details are shown of the capital expenditures for the year ended October
31, 1939.
Capital Expenditures and Grants — Rural Power Districts. —
This schedule gives summary information respecting the total capital
expenditures on rural power districts and grants-in-aid of construction
paid or payable by the Province with respect to such rural districts.
Power Accounts Receivable. — This schedule sets forth the
amounts collectable from all classes of power consumers and includes the
annual adjustment figures from the "credit or charge" statements for
municipalities. The main details of those debit balances three months
or more overdue are stated.
Funded Debt Issued or Assumed. — This schedule presents a
complete list of the securities issued or assumed by the Commission on
account of the several systems, and the Northern Ontario Properties.
It should be noted that where securities have been issued to finance
properties operated for others, this liability is only shown in memoran-
dum form on the balance sheet of the Commission, whilst the direct
liability is shown on the balance sheets of the Northern Ontario
Properties.
106 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Renewals Reserves,
Contingencies and Obsolescence Reserves and
Stabilization of Rates Reserves. — These schedules show the
provisions made to, the expenditures from, and the balance to the
credit of, these reserves for each of the systems and other properties
included in the power undertakings operated on a cost basis.
Sinking Fund Reserves. — This schedule summarizes the appro-
priation of principal and interest with respect to these reserves for each
of the systems and certain minor properties.
Account with the Provincial Treasurer. — This schedule lists,
both for the Niagara and other systems operated on a cost basis, and
for the Northern Ontario Properties which are held and operated by
the Commission in trust for the Province, the advances from the
Province of Ontario and the repayments which have been applied to
reduce this liability. It should be noted that Provincial advances to
finance Northern Ontario Properties are shown in memorandum form
only on the balance sheet of the Commission as the direct liability is
carried on the Northern Ontario Properties' balance sheet.
Following these statements, which are common to all systems, there are
given for each of the individual co-operative systems four tabular statements
as follows:
Cost of Power statement, which shows the apportionment to each
municipality of the items of cost summarized in the operating account,
as well as the apportionment of fixed assets in service listed in the
balance sheet and the amount of power taken by each municipality.
It should be noted that the cost of power given in this table is the
wholesale cost — that is, the cost which the Commission receives for the
power delivered from the main transformer stations serving the local
utility. In the case of municipal electrical utilities not directly admin-
istered by the Commission, the respective costs of power appear in
Statement "B" of Section X as "power purchased".
Credit or Charge statement, which shows the adjustments made
in order to bring the amounts paid by each municipal electric utility
to the actual cost of service. The credits and charges for the municipal
electric utilities are taken up and given effect to in the accounts of
"Hydro" utilities.
Sinking Fund statement, which gives the accumulated total of
the amounts paid by each municipality as part of the cost of power
together with its proportionate share of other sinking funds.
Rural Operating statement, which summarizes for the rural
power districts of the system the various items of cost, and the revenues
received, in connection with the distribution of electrical energy to
rural consumers.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 107
Northern Ontario Properties
The statements and schedules respecting these properties which are held
and operated by the Commission in trust for the Province of Ontario include
the balance sheet, operating and income accounts, schedules of fixed assets,
renewals reserves, contingencies and obsolescence reserves, and sinking fund
reserves. These schedules are similar in form to the corresponding schedules
relating to the co-operative systems.
The Hamilton Street Railway Company
This is a subsidiary of the Niagara system of the Commission. A balance
sheet and operating and income account are presented.
Municipal Utilities
All municipal ' 'Hydro" utilities have current expenses to meet similar to
the expenses of the Commission and have adopted the same financial procedure
with respect to their operations. In other words, concurrently with the
creation of funds to liquidate their debt to the Commission and to provide the
necessary reserves to protect generating, transforming and transmission sys-
tems, the municipalities are taking similar action with respect to their local
"Hydro" utility systems.
The balance sheets, operating reports and statistical data appearing in
Section X, under the heading of "Municipal Accounts", relate to the operation
of local distribution systems by individual municipalities which have con-
tracted with the Commission for their supply of electrical energy. To this
section there is an explanatory introduction to which the reader is specially
referred.
Auditing of Accounts
The accounts of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario are
verified by auditors specially appointed by the Provincial Government. The
accounts of the "Hydro" utility of each individual municipality are prepared
according to approved and standard practice and The Public Utilities Act
requires that they shall be audited by the auditors of the municipal
corporation.

SECTION X
MUNICIPAL ACCOUNTS
and
Statistical Data Relating to Hydro-Electric Distribution Systems
Operated by Individual Municipalities Served by
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
of Ontario
The Municipal Accounts section of this report presents in summary,
and individually, the results of the operation of the local electrical utilities
in municipalities owning their own distributing systems and operating with
energy supplied by or through The Hydro-Electric Power Commission.
Financial statements prepared from the books of these ' 'Hydro' ' utilities
are submitted herein to show how each has operated during the past year,
and its financial status at the present time. Other tables give useful statis-
tical information respecting average costs for the various classes of service
and the rates in force.
The books of account of the electrical utilities in all municipalities which
have contracted with The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario for
a supply of power are kept in accordance with an accounting system designed
by the Commission. During the year 1939 this standard method of account-
ing was installed in Arnprior, Millbrook, Morrisburg, Orono, and Sioux
Lookout.
Periodical inspections are made of the books of all ' 'Hydro" electrical
utilities and local officials are assisted in the improvement of their office
routine with a view to standardizing, as far as possible, the methods employed.
In the majority of the smaller municipalities much of the book-keeping for the
electrical utilities is performed by representatives of the municipal accounting
department of the Commission as a measure of economy. This arrangement
insures the correct application of the standard accounting system, with re-
sultant uniformity in classification of revenues and expenditures; secures true
reflections of the actual operating results for the year, and greatly enhances
the comparative values of the reports.
The first financial statement in this section presents consolidated balance
sheets for each year since 1913, and thus shows the march of progress. It
combines the balance sheets of the local municipal utilities of all the systems.
It is worth noting that the total plant value has increased from $10,081,469.16
190 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
in 1913 to $99,489,754.98 in 1939, and the total assets from $11,907,826.86
to $173,522,878.40. The liabilities have not increased in the same proportion
as the assets, rising from $10,468,351.79 to a maximum of $52,685,316.86 in
1932, and receding to $34,241,489.78 in 1939. The reasons for this are the
regular fulfilment of debt retirement schedules under serial debenture pro-
visions or by maturity of sinking funds, and also the fact that much of the
cost of the increasing plant value has been financed out of reserves and surplus
without increasing the capital liabilities of the respective utilities. By this
procedure the funds of the systems are used to best advantage. Examination
of the results will also show that there is a steady decline in the percentage of
net liabilities to total assets; being from 88.0 per cent in 1913 to 19.3 per cent
in 1939. The equities in The Hydro-Electric Power Commission's systems
automatically acquired through the inclusion of sinking funds as part of the
cost of power are not taken into account in arriving at these percentages.
The second financial statement presents consolidated operating reports
for each year since ' 'Hydro" service was inaugurated and combines the results
from the local municipal utilities of all the systems. After providing for every
cost of operation and fixed charges, including the standard provision for depre-
ciation, the combined operating reports show a net surplus of $866,909.54 for
1939. (See also diagrams in Foreword to Report.)
The five statements/ 'A" to "E", following the two consolidated reports
show the financial status of each municipal utility and the results of opera-
tions, giving classified information respecting revenue, operating costs, num-
ber of consumers and consumption, cost of power to municipalities, power
and lighting rates charged to consumers, etc. In statements "A" and "B",
the municipalities are arranged alphabetically under each system; in state-
ment "D" the municipalities are arranged in three groups— cities, towns and
small municipalities; in statements "C" and "E" all municipalities are
arranged alphabetically.
Statement "A" presents the balance sheet of each electrical utility.
The plant values are shown under the general subdivisions specified in the
standard accounting system and the other items on the positive side of the
ledger which are included in total assets are self-explanatory with the excep-
tion, perhaps, of the item entitled "equity in H-E.P.C. systems." The sink-
ing fund portion of the cost paid year by year to the Commission for power is
for the purpose of ultimately retiring the capital liabilities incurred by the
Commission on behalf of the municipalities. A municipality's aggregate
equity in the Commission's systems at any time is the total of the sinking fund
payments that have been credited to it, together with interest. The total
sinking fund equity acquired by these municipalities to the end of 1939 is
shown in the consolidated balance sheet to be $48,615,296.94.
In conformity with a policy of service at cost to the customer, refunds by
cash or credit were made during the year in many municipalities from surplus
funds accrued to the credit of municipal services, such as street lighting, water
works, sewage disposal, etc., and to individual customers. The amounts of
the accumulated surplus rebated equalled, in different municipalities, from
five per cent to twenty per cent of the previous year's revenue. The total
thus returned to customers during the year 1939 amounted in round figures
to $500,000.00.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 191
In each case the balance sheet includes the credit or charge representing
the difference between the monthly payments for power at interim rates and
the cost of power as ascertained by the Commission upon annual adjustment.
The reserves for depreciation, and the acquired equity in The Hydro-
Electric Power Commission's systems, are listed individually and totalled;
and under the heading "surplus" are included not only the free operating
surplus but the accumulation of sinking fund applicable to debenture debt
and also the amount of debentures already retired out of revenue.
The depreciation reserve now amounts to 27.7 per cent of the total depre-
ciable plant, while the depreciation reserve and surplus combined have already
reached the sum of $87,575,620.34, approximately 88.0 per cent of the total
plant cost.
Statement "B" shows detailed operating reports for each municipal
electrical utility. It gives annual revenues from the various classes of con-
sumers; the items of expenditure which make up the total annual expenditure
and the sums set aside for depreciation. The population served by each local
utility and the number of consumers of each class are also shown.
The item "power purchased" in this statement includes the debit or credit
balances ascertained by the annual adjustment of the cost of power supplied
to the municipalities by the Commission.
Of the 293 municipal electric utilities included in this statement, 229
received from consumers revenue sufficient to meet in full all operating ex-
penses, interest, debt retirement instalments, and standard depreciation re-
serve allocation and to yield an aggregate net surplus of $1,053,245.51 for the
year; 52 were able to defray out of revenue all such charges except a portion
of the standard depreciation allocation aggregating $156,854.68, in the case of
12 utilities the revenue was less than the total operating expenses, interest and
debt retirement instalments by $9,248.43.
Statement "C" shows the installation of street lights in each munici-
pality together with the rates approved by this Commission, the revenue for
1939, and the cost per capita in each municipality.
Statement "D" presents statistics relating to the supply of electrical
energy to consumers in Ontario municipalities served by the Commission. It
shows the reveune, kilowatt-hour consumption, number of consumers, average
monthly consumption, average monthly bill and the net average cost per
kilowatt-hour both for domestic and for commercial light service in each muni-
cipality. For power service this statement shows the revenue, the number of
consumers and the average horsepower supplied by the municipal utility.*
For further reference to this informative statement, consult the special intro-
duction to it on page 328.
Statement "E" presents the cost per horsepower of the power provided
for and delivered to the municipalities by the Commission, and the local rates
to consumers in force in the respective municipalities, during the year 1939,
for domestic service, for commercial light service and for power service.
*The statistics include retail power only. Wholesale industrial power as supplied by the
Commission direct, is reported in Section IX.

Note: The "Cost to municipality in 1939" represents the charges billed to the municipality
by the utility for street lighting service in the calendar year. This total charge differs in some
cases from the total computed for the installation at the rates shown, for the following reasons: —
First: Certain equipment may have been in service for less than twelve months. Second: More
equipment than shown for December 31 may have been in service earlier in the year.
**Population not shown in Government statistics, s Series system, m Multiple system.
tfCertain additional street lighting costs for special service are paid direct in form of
debenture charges.

328 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
STATEMENT "D"
Statistics Relating to the Supply of Electrical Energy to
Consumers in Urban Municipalities Served by
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
Regarding the results of Hydro operation from the standpoint of the
consumers, the following tabulation gives much useful and interesting informa-
tion. For each main class of service in each urban municipal utility receiving
power at cost from the Commission, Statement "D" lists the revenue, the
consumption and the number of consumers, together with unit average costs
and consumptions and other pertinent data.
The policy and practice of the Commission has been, and is, to make as
widespread and beneficial a distribution of electrical energy as possible, and to
extend to every community that can economically be reached by transmission
lines, the benefit of electrical service. Even where, in certain localities, by
reason of the distance from a source of supply or on account of the small
quantity of power required by the municipality, the cost per horsepower to
the municipality — and, consequently, the cost of service to the consumer —
must unavoidably be higher than in more favourably situated communities,
service has not been withheld when the consumers were able and willing to
pay the cost.
The accompanying diagram summarizes graphically certain data of
Statement "D" respecting the average cost to the consumer. It will be
observed that the total amount of energy sold in municipalities where circum-
stances necessitate rates which result in the higher average costs to the con-
sumer is relatively insignificant. With respect to power service, it should be
noted that the statistics of Statement "D", and of the diagram, cover mainly
retail power service supplied to the smaller industrial consumers. The aver-
age amount of power taken by the industrial consumers served by the
municipalities is about 45 horsepower. The Commission serves certain
large power consumers direct on behalf of the various systems of municipalities.
It should be kept in mind that the revenues reported in Statement "D,"
and used for purposes of calculating the net unit costs to the consumer, are
the total revenues contributed by the consumers, and provide, in addition to
the cost of power, sums specifically applicable to the retirement of capital,
and also operating surplus which is in part applied to retirement of capital
or extension of plant and is in part returned in cash to the consumers.
It should also be noted that average costs per kilowatt-hour or per horse-
power if employed indiscriminately as a criterion by means of which to com-
pare the rates or prices for electrical service in various municipalities, will give
misleading results. The average costs per kilowatt-hour, as given in State-
ment "D" for respective classes of service in each municipality, are statistical
results obtained by dividing the respective revenues by the aggregate kilowatt-
hours sold. As such, the data reflect the combined influence of a number
of factors, of which the rates or prices to consumers are but one factor. Owing
to the varying influence of factors other than the rates, it is seldom found that
in any two municipalities the average cost per kilowatt-hour to the consumers,
even of the same classification, is in proportion to the respective rates for ser-
vice. Instances even occur where for a class of consumers in one municipality,
the average costs per kilowatt-hour are substantially lower than for the same
class in another municipality, even though the rates are higher.

THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF
No. 26
With respect to domestic service, for example, instances may be observed
where two municipalities have identical prices or rates for domestic service,
but the average cost per kilowatt-hour to the consumer varies by as much as
50 per cent or more. Such variations are due principally to differences in the
extent of utilization of the service for the operation of electric ranges, water
heaters and other appliances, an indication of which is afforded by the statistics
of average monthly consumption.
In the case of power service, average unit costs are still less reliable as an
indication of the relative rates for service in different municipalities. In the
case of hydro-electric power supplied to industries at cost, the rate schedules
incorporate charges both for demand and for energy consumption, and thus,
although the quantity of power taken by a consumer — that is, the demand
as measured in horsepower — is the most important factor affecting costs and
revenues, it is not the only one. The number of hours the power is used in
the month or year — which, in conjunction with the power, determines the
energy consumption, as measured in kilowatt-hours — also affects the costs
and revenues. Consequently, in two municipalities charging the same rates
for power service, the average cost per horsepower to the consumer will vary
in accordance with the consumers' average number of hours' use of the power
per month. A greater average energy consumption per horsepower increases
the average cost per horsepower and decreases the average cost per kilowatt-
hour to the consumer, and vice versa*
*In view of the fact that the data of Statement "D" have been misinterpreted in the making
of certain comparisons as to the cost of electricity in various territories, it is desirable to add
a word of caution respecting their significance. Essentially, the average cost or revenue per
kilowatt-hour is not a criterion of rates even with similar forms of rate schedules and for the same
class of service. Particularly is this true when revenues and consumptions of all classes of service
and of all kinds of rate schedules, are indiscriminately lumped together in order to deduce a
so-called "average cost or rate per kilowatt-hour" for all services.
In one community rates for each class of service, and the cost to every consumer in each class for
any given service and consumption, may be substantially higher than in another community, and yet
there may be in the former community a lower "average revenue per kilowatt-hour."
Example. — Assume sales of electrical energy by two electric utilities, A and B, in each case
10,000,000 kilowatt-hours.

1.425 cents per kw-hr.
It will be observed that in Case A the rates both for residence and for power service are 33
per cent higher than in Case B, but the average revenue per kilowatt-hour is nearly 9 per cent less.
In this instance, the explanation lies in the relative quantities of energy sold to each class-
Service to large power consumers entails a smaller capital investment in distribution lines and
equipment and lower operating costs per kilowatt-hour delivered, than does service to domestic
and to commercial light consumers, and even where the rates for all classes of service are low,
produces a smaller average revenue per kilowatt-hour. Consequently, if one electrical utility
as compared with another sells a larger proportion of its energy for power purposes, its "average
revenue per kilowatt-hour" may easily be lower than that of the other utility even though its
rates for every class of service are substantially higher.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 331
Although the derived statistics of Statement "D" are valueless as a means
of comparing the rates in one municipality with those in another, they never-
theless fulfil a function in affording a general measure of the economy of service
to consumers in the co-operating Ontario municipalities — an economy that
has resulted primarily from the low rates themselves, and secondarily from
the extensive use of the service that has been made possible by the low rates.
Actual bills rendered to typical consumers for similar service under
closely comparable circumstances constitute the best basis for making com-
parisons. In researches respecting rates to consumers therefore the actual
rate schedules of Statement "E" should be employed, and not statistics of
average revenues per kilowatt-hour, as these are valueless for rate comparisons
— and particularly so when all classifications of service are combined.
In any consideration of the relative economies of electrical service in the
various municipalities — whether based on the actual rates for service as set
forth in Statement "E", or on the derived statistics resulting from the rates
and other factors as presented in Statement "D" — full account should be
taken respectively of the influence upon costs of such factors as the size of
the municipality, the distance from the source of power, the features of the
power developments, the sizes and concentrations of adjacent markets for
electricity, and the sizes and characters of the loads supplied under the
various classifications by the local electrical utility to the consumers.
In Statement " D" account has been taken of the sizes of municipalities by
grouping them according to whether they are (i) cities — over 10,000 popula-
tion; (ii) towns of 2,000 to 10,000 population; or (iii) small towns (under 2,000
population), villages, and suburban areas in townships (which are comparable
in respect of conditions of supply to the smaller towns and villages). The
populations are also given, and the situation of any municipality with respect
to transmission lines and power supplies may be ascertained by consulting the
maps at the end of the Report.
A feature of the electrical service in Ontario municipalities served by The
Hydro-Electric Power Commission is the strikingly large average annual con-
sumption per domestic consumer. There are very few Ontario urban muni-
cipalities where the average annual consumption per domestic consumer is
less than 600 kilowatt-hours. Of the 87 cities and towns with populations
of 2,000 or more — in which over 85 per cent of the domestic consumers of
the undertaking are served — no less than 78 have an average annual con-
sumption per domestic consumer in excess of 1,000 kilowatt-hours; of these,
45 have an average annual consumption per domestic consumer in excess of
1,500 kilowatt-hours, and 21 have an average annual consumption per
domestic consumer in excess of 2,000 kilowatt-hours.
The high average consumption for domestic service results essentially
from the policy of the undertaking in providing service "at cost"; the rate
schedules designed according to this principle automatically encourage liberal
use of the service. Under the standard rate schedules employed by Ontario
municipalities, follow-up rates of 1 cent and 1.25 cents (less 10 per cent) are
in common use, and as a rule even where the higher initial rates per kilowatt-
hour obtain, it is only necessary for the domestic consumer to reach a monthly
charge of from $2.00 to $3.00 to obtain the benefit of a follow-up rate of 1.8
cents net. The cost of electric cooking is thus within reach of most of the
domestic consumers in Ontario. Electric water heating is also encouraged
by low flat rates for continuous heaters and by installation of equipment
without capital cost to the consumer.

For Domestic Service, for Commercial Light Service
Group III— SMALL TOWNS (less than 2,000 population),
Note — The power used in the smaller places and rural districts is, and possibly must always
be. a relatively small proportion of the power distributed by the Commission. Thus, the power
used by the small municipalities in the following group, which includes small towns, villages and
certain suburban areas in townships, is less than 10 per cent of the power distributed by the
Commission to Ontario municipalities. This relatively small proportion of the total power,

346 THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
STATEMENT "E"
Cost of Power to Municipalities and Rates to Consumers for
Domestic Service — Commercial Light Service — Power Service
in Ontario Urban Municipalities Served by
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
For the Year 1939
In Statement "E" are presented the rate schedules applicable to con-
sumers for domestic service, for commercial light service and for power service
in each of the co-operating municipalities receiving service at cost through
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission.* The cost per horsepower of the
power supplied at wholesale by the Commission to the municipality, an
important factor in determining rates to consumers, is also stated.
Cost of Power to Municipalities
The figures in the first column represent the total cost for the year of the
power supplied by the Commission to the municipality, divided by the number
of horsepower supplied. Details respecting these costs are given in the "Cost
of Power" tables relating to the several systems, as presented in Section IX,
and an explanation of the items making up the cost of power is given in the
introduction to that Section.
Rates to Consumers
The Power Commission Act stipulates that "The rates chargeable by any
municipal corporation generating or receiving and distributing electrical power
or energy shall at all times be subject to the approval and control of the
Commission,' 'f in accordance with the Act and in pursuance of its fundamental
principle of providing service at cost, the Commission requires that accurate
cost records be kept in each municipality, and exercises a continuous super-
vision over the rates charged to consumers.
At the commencement of its operations, the Commission introduced
scientifically-designed rate schedules for each of the three main classes into
which the electrical service is usually divided, namely : residential or domestic
service, commercial light service, and power service, and the schedules in use
during the past year are presented in the tables of this statement.
*Except townships served as parts of rural power districts, for which consult latter part
of Section III.
fR.S.O. 1937, Ch. 62, Sec. 89.
1940 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 347
Domestic Service: Domestic rates apply to electrical service in residences,
for all household purposes, including lighting, cooking and the operation of all
domestic appliances.
During the past few years most of the urban municipal utilities have
further simplified the domestic rate structure by abolishing the service charge,
and making a suitable adjustment in the first consumption rate. Where the
service charge is retained at 33 and 66 cents gross per month the charge of
33 cents per month per service is made when the permanently installed
appliance load is under 2,000 watts, and the charge of 66 cents per month
when 2,000 watts or more.
Commercial Light Service : Electrical energy used in stores, offices, churches,
schools, public halls and institutions, hotels, public boarding-houses, and in
all other premises for commercial purposes, including sign and display lighting,
is billed at commercial lighting rates.
Water-Heater Service: For all consumers using continuous electric water
heaters, low flat rates are available consisting of a fixed charge per month
dependent on the capacity of the heating element and the cost of power to the
municipal utility. Such heaters are so connected that the electrical energy
they consume is not metered. For new installations the necessary equip-
ment, including heater, thermostat, efficient insulation for water-storage tank,
and wiring, is installed by a large number of municipal Hydro systems,
without capital cost to the consumer.!
Power Service: The rate schedules given for power service in Statement
"E" are those governing the supply of power at retail by each of the local
municipal utilities. The Commission serves direct, certain large power con-
sumers under special contracts, on behalf of the various systems of municipali-
ties.
The rates for power service, as given in the tables, are the rates for 24-hour
unrestricted power at secondary distribution voltage. For service at primary
distribution voltage the rates are usually five per cent lower than those stated.
In municipalities where load conditions and other circumstances permit, lower
rates are available for "restricted power," discounts additional to those listed
in the table being applicable.
The service charge relates to the connected load or to the maximum
demand, as measured by a 10-minute average peak, where a demand meter
is installed. The prompt payment discount of 10 per cent on the total
monthly bill is given for settlement within 10 days.
Under the tabulation of rates for power service there is a column headed
"Basis of rate 130 hours' monthly use of demand." This column shows
approximately the net annual amount payable for a demand of one horse-
power, assuming a monthly use of 130 hours, which includes 30 hours' use each
month at the third energy rate. Broadly, the figures in this column serve to
indicate approximately the relative cost of power service in the different
municipalities listed.
fin addition, the municipal Hydro systems supply booster water-heating equipment to
furnish extra requirements beyond the capacity of the continuous heater; current for the booster
heater is measured and charged for at the regular rates.
